The life is

Friday,14th December 2018

 

I brush aside

and decide

to keep away

the feelings of pain and stay

 

So lovely feelings

for being a human being

for a simple gift from an almighty

how could it have been possible to know humanity?

 

The ripples rise from the inner chamber

causing so much of an anger

yet, that doesn't devastate me

I feel very much strong and free

 

If I can't live

or if peace eludes me,

"life is worthless" just believe

take out the burden and relieve self

 

Pain and relief emanates simultaneously

you come out of it immediately

as it becomes known to you

that life is a struggle and has to be passed through
