Things can change

I saw glitter in her eyes,

That sparkled the whole crowd,

Gave the power to survive

Who couldn't resist it any long?

She spoke words of magic,

A melodious music to one's ears.

Her words betrayed tragic

And gifted hope to others.

Her steps were firm,

She danced like a peacock

But took an incorrect step

And turned her path to near death.

All that she felt, was now only seen in dreams,

She tried and tried but the path she chose,

Could never bring back her dreams to reality.

This is an unexpected poem of mixed messages for me. Some parts are sparkling, other parts are a descent into death. The title explains the unavoidable, life is always throwing curve balls at us, which we must process or sidestep or succumb to. That's the message that comes thru for me. Very thought-provoking message. Good Job!
