Life Poems

Survive

Survive
Looking out of the window, as the sun slowly hides beneath the horizon, the darkness creeps and crawls its way upon the land;
i have been waiting for years, haunted by memories, going round and round, in this vicious circle of life;
as the music fades away, i look around to spot any familiar faces, it seems i am here all alone, trying to make sense of this crazy thing called life;
how long does it take? to solve this puzzle called life? how much more longer, if only i knew!
like a bird in a cage, as i sit and stare into another day, its getting harder and harder, to be in control yet feel helpless;
yet, i have been waiting for years, it made no sense, maybe this is what my life is?
as i look into an unknown horizon, the promise of a happy ending tempts me back, and i choose to survive to have another go at this thing called Life!

  1. “Love is eternal”

    love takes you where you want
    to go, love shows you what you
    have to give to that other person
    who loves you as you are.

    It has no boundaries that
    it can’t break, love makes
    you give all that you can
    give.

    Love is eternal,
    Love is emotional
    Love give you wings
    that makes you say
    and do all kinds of things
    that you wouldn’t normally
    do.
