Shaken Up By Reality
Dreams Seem So Pure And Natural
Life can be like broken glass
It can cut you deep
Messy and not easy to clean up
You have to go slow
If we rush
You will pay the price
No easy fix
Mistakes happen
People are a lot like things
No one or nothing lasts forever
The people left behind
Have to deal with the situation
There are two ways to handle it
With patience and caution
Lots of understanding and grace
Is the smart choice
We may chose a different path in the beginning
We can keep wondering why it happened in the first place ?
It will serve us no good
It is over and done
We can't go back
Even though in our minds we will revisit many times
We can move forward
Putting this behind us
It always can be so much worse
If the broken glass was a treasure from the past
A keepsake or a person we loved so much
We had the greatest pleasures for many years
These wonderful moments don't last
The memories we have left
Will give us a good reminder
Enjoy what we have
When it is gone
This time and place
Will be left empty
If we are creative and use our God given talents
Imagination can set you free
Other thoughts not things can fill their spot
So new memories will take the place of the old
It will not be the same
It will be different
We can be set free
To new joys and new feelings
Where we may never forget the pain and the loss
It will become bearable
Our heartaches a little less
Life can be complicated
It is up to us to make it
The way we have always wanted
We can learn to take our dreams
To create a new reality
Where we can experience new treasures of happiness
One day at a time
