Reaching out, a helping hand
Out of nowhere, there she stands

Reflection from the mirror
We see our self

Staring head on
Truth comes about

Life is funny
So they say
A new beginning
A shadow in the breeze

Move on now
No one can say
The puppet is our master
For this day

Tomorrow is here
We hear our calling
An undying wish
The crash is falling

Hope is cruel
It hurt's us deep
Master is calling
It lets you sleep

Possessed are we
There is no excuse
Help us now
Relieve our sorrow

Pitty for the weak
Is cast upon us
Cold hard truth
Is here tomorrow

I know it is, thank you.  A broken heart helps you write.  I hate knowing what I know, but hey, life goes on.

Steve,  the good side of the coin is that
hearts do mend...just slowly sometimes.

The cold hard truth is something to contend with, indeed.
Then again, real friends are so far and few between.  

Enjoyed your poem,  steve~
