The Best Things in Life are the Deadliest

The best things in life are always the deadliest.

When the fragile stitches that hold us together

Give way to love and heartbreak sets in

We disassemble like crumbling towers.

Ashes that torment the weakened spirits

Are buried in a cemetery

Or they are above your fireplace

To symbolize life's pieces.

The puzzle is never the same again

Until you create new elements

Which allow you to adapt

And enjoy the best things in life again.

You soon redefine the best things in life

The summer sky is bright again.

A smile sent your way captures you

For a moment in time you are happy.
