A heart that used to beat has stopped -
A face that used to smile...does not.
Eyes that used to cry - are dried
Dreams that used to be have died !
Stars that used to shine are dim
Anger - bitterness now within -
For I have died...
For I have died...
For I have died...
and now you win..........

Poet....again another fine piece. It speaks volumes in very few words. Sometimes they only win for a short while though...that anger, that bitterness, all of that shall too pass. Life goes on and so do we unless we choose no to. May God Bless
