Falling Life

Life's members falling aside, as the rest of life goes on. Yellowed with age, crippled by disease, alone and feeling abandoned now that the children have grown and moved away. Loneliness echoes across halls of yesterday, maintaining the good times once had. Now like water flowing downstream, gently, hurriedly, taking everything with it, as our lives bob up and down frantically, trying to hold on. Peaceful nature of life surrounding the entire universe will one day wrap and envelope each of us as we float through death's embrace.
