Life Fades... Poem by John F. Bisner Ureña.

Vibrant colors of life fading
disappearing from sight like a sad clown
without a timely life or show of laughter,
heartbreaking omen of acute ailment for
an observant wizard with disconsolate eyes,
faces full of sadness and grief fearing
face a chest full of dreams and broken sighs...

Loving and selfless wife but so fragile,
the smile of a husband reflecting concern,
there is resignation and much sweetness in man,
If only I could stay a little longer by his side
I wish every moment with her to be lasting,
every minute of tenderness counts in eternal hope...

I am not perpetual,
nobody is,
reality is too painful
to see her every day,
being brave is not easy,
faking an everyday smile when waking up hurts
but the mockery of those who do not understand are worse,
I prefer to give happiness although I know what is to come,
I feel butterflies bubbling sweetly in my stomach
without a doubt, life should be used to the maximum,
time flies and passes quickly without waiting for anyone,
it is better to try without giving in or crying, 'be and live happy'...

Life fades and no one is saved,
It goes away and evaporates in the heat of the day
tiptoes away through dark nights,
you have to take care of existence like a good wife
she tends to her sweet wounded husband,
do it for them,
for the children who are hurt...

Your wife is your friend
buddy and lover,
there is no being similar,
it's a whole life of love together,
a husband, a friend and companion,
grateful man in his need
that is erased in the dream of an instant...

Your friend forever,
John Bisner Ureña.
