Approaching 40...

"Life is a book and your forties are the chapters when it all starts making sense." 

Whines:

The darkness inside me.....will never be appeased.

I tried to color the inky black with all the other pigments I could overwrite.

They just made nasty holes after holes with all the new blank papers I bought with hope.

Just like the stubborn taint punctured an ugly hole inside my heart.

"If you trust the wrong person with good faith, by the time you realized your faults, it's too late to start counting your losses..."

Have you been taken for a ride and a convenient tool to fool?

Take human dealings like a pinch of salt with a bit of honey at the same time.
