Broken Paradise Poem by Matthew Holloway

Broken paradise
~
Paradise has been tainted
stained by a dreams lie
there is no rose garden
no happily ever after
no final solution to happiness
which is in itself a work in progress
paradise is not as expected
its just another place, another time
with different things to face
new people, different words
it was not supposed to be like this
where is the endless laughter
the smiles and friends
which a dream once promised
paradise is broken
but there is still something here
worth holding out for
I really love her
