My Preception; Poem by Dwayne Bailey

My preception of reality, has become tainted with time;
The world seems so bitter, people once friends unkind.
My phone which once was busy, now is hardly used;
My heart has turned so cold, tired of being abused.

Alone I now must sit, things in my life have changed;
My marrige which once was happy, my X has rearanged.
The simple pleasures I used to enjoy, seem like a chore to me;
Happiness once filled my heart, now bitterness is all I see.

My preception of life is different, though I wished it was not so;
Bitterness now lives, where once love used to grow.
