The Mysteries Of Life
Sometimes, something

Mysterious happens in life

Some little thing

That makes us see

Things in a different light

Some little comments

We have read or heard

Something seems to mark us

And leave us without words

We meet someone

And we wonder why

We try to relate to them but can't

No matter how hard we try

They leave a mark on our  hearts

That we can't understand

One turns and leaves

It changes all the plans

A mile stone in our life

Came and went

We wonder from which

Direction it was sent

Someone came in our life

And marked our heart

Then we stand and

Feel so torn apart

An experience like this

Makes us so aware

We know it was an

Example, oh so rare

We turn and walk

So silently away

Deep inside there

Is nothing left to say
