A fool such as I

I guess we wander through
Never realising what we do
Until it comes around to haunt us
In those words we spew
In the very actions we choose
How often do we wonder?
About the consequences...
About those telling signs...
We often simply ignore...
Until fate evens the score!
Did we give too much?
Spoiled the child and such?
Think we were above it?
Think we could out-love it?
Those sad circumstances...
Those bad disturbances...
That hamper each and every one
Life's uncertainties...
Did we actually overcome them?
Or do they simply linger deep?
Within that black hole...
Where we had to place them...
Waiting for them to resurface...
Searing our hearts so deep...
