Upturned Hearts

Pictures of happiness and pleasure fade in and out throughout life depending on sorrow and grief we each have to contend with. Keeping our minds focused on goodness becomes difficult when our heart has turned itself around, not wanting to face the life it's supposed to be living fully. Loneliness, emptiness, and abandonment continuously rupturing our peace of mind, sending us into such turmoil that we tend to isolate and turn our backs on everything and everyone. Delicate balances are cracked and challenged as tears fall incessantly into the palms of our hands, crying without stopping. Enquiring minds wanting to find a path to normalcy get lost and take forsaken journeys throughout life, all alone and bereft, not seeing any way through the loss of a lifetime love. A challenging moment of sadness lasts forever within a photographic memory, always being held closely in upturned hearts.
