Their life had changed

Once someone told her
That was it
That she’d always had
An expiry date
They didn’t mean it
But it was too late
She went home and cried
Not alone but afraid

Their life had changed

All she had dreamed of
Disappeared
She felt so weak and
Unprepared
Nobody told her
It would be that hard
To fake a smile and
Be alright.

Tears in their eyes
News that changed minds
Back then, they were fine
But right now they’re feeling down
Somehow there is no way
To run away from all these dreadful clouds

Time passed, hope stayed.
Love grew and children came
They were so in love
While colours screamed over her paint
So sad to see their eyes
Wanting to erase all that pain
Since then

Their life had changed
