Life Faintly Penned

The sun came up once more today
Yesterday's anger stood not in its way
Feelings that threatened life to demolish
Gleam with a hint of tomorrow's polish

Life's hard no matter where it's stage
So often fired with bouts of angry rage
Laughter's drowned within hate's frame
Souls neither win nor lose a senseless game

When thoughts are spent on what has been
Worrying whether they were fiend or friend
Time becomes lost in a frenzy of deep emotion
As hope's buried whilst seeking love's devotion

Yet hidden amongst these dark dank dreams
Lies a golden heartbeat that defiantly beams
Know the stars above are but a breath away
Tomorrow's not promised nor is one more day

Time dances on to a whimsical dainty beat
Life trips along on mismatched clumsy feet
Hope reigns high in a child's precious smile
Alive with promises begging us to stay awhile

Face the morrow knowing yesterday's faded
A story destined to be told with smiles jaded
Whatever words are the last to be faintly penned
Life's to be lived no matter how the story ends
