WHISPERS OF DIMINISHING LIFE

Another day passed, dusk took its place, Life went on, yet neared its grace. Those childhood memories, vivid and bright, Innocent faces, pure delight. The dew of love from those we knew, The peaceful nights, the mornings new. But where have those memories faded away? Like dreams forgotten at the break of day. Another day passed, dusk took its place, Life went on, yet neared its grace. From childhood's charm, we grew to youth, Carrying the weight of others' truth. What once was theirs became our own, The path of life, to us, unknown. Disillusioned with dreams of paradise, Worldly desires soon turned to ice. Love, too, left us desolate and torn, Roses bloomed, but the garden mourned. Now even youth begins to wane, The flame of life flickers in pain.
