Daytime passes,
Night-time consumes,
Faces pass by,
Sadness looms,
Friends change,
Families derange,
Minds die,
Hearts lie,
Life's full of despair
Feelings tear
Hearts break,
Helps too late
Tears roll down,
Smiles then frown,
Words hurt,
Love don't work,
Hate overrides,
Cupids on the devils side,
Memories disappear,
With a bloody tear,
Partners cheat,
Surrender to defeat,
We all must pay the price,
For these are the shadows of life.
