This life

by Sofia Amrani   Jun 6, 2011


This life
So harsh
So violent
So disappointing
This life
As generous as the sun
And as warm as the heat of your love

This life
So real
So beautiful
So joyful
And so unpredictable
As the coming of a new born
This life
Which has filled many souls
And yet emptied so many to poor�s

This life
I love when am loved
I fear when I am drowned
To the bottom of the waters
This life
Is where I can�t breathe

This life
So entire
And yet so destructive
This life
That goes and comes back

This life
That steals pure souls
That strikes pain
That brings sadness
That teaches loss
Sorrow

This life
That has stolen you away from me
Like the wind undresses au�mn trees
That knocks hard on my door
And aspires fear
Freezes the body
This life
So cold
This life
I wished I had not met
I wished I had not opened my eyes to
I did not cry to
This life
These tears
I cry for you
I cry for us
I want to be with you

This life
Which has made me love
Which has made me forget
This life
Is my past
Is my present
The future
Which has made us so scared
So uncertain, so fearful

This life
That grows
That walks
That falls
And that seeks love,
Like a baby to the heart beat of its mother

This life
So meaningless
As the book it writes
I can�t read
Unspoken words
These lines
This life
I read through you
You read through me
This life
That writes without writing

This life
The friendship it ties
Me to you
And you to me
Forever
The smiles
The pain that un�cries
The rainbow over the skies

This life
The heat that warms your body
That shivers mine
This life
It feels
I am into you
You are into me
Forever

This life
The mother who suffers
The water that breaks
The cries that follows
The birth of new eyes

    I've been away from this site for a very very long time so this is the first poem I've read here in forever... I'm delighted at the fact it was so surreal and vivid. I really enjoyed it thank you for sharing.
