The Taste Now Bittersweet

The taste now bittersweet,
the joys of life cut short.
The nights now long,
for there is no sleep.
The mind won't rest,
the body inclined to give up.
The things in life we over look,
now comes into focus
as life slaps us in the face.
The stars,the moon,the sun,
no longer shine bright.
For the taste now bittersweet,
as the joys of life are cut short.
