2010 - Against the Tide of Time

Like sand castles on the beach
Our dreams also perish
Against the tide of time
Where we see
The emptiness of the woven twigs
And unpleasant thought, fear and anger
Holding on and crushing us
Under the heavy burden 
Of emotional baggage
We see our own life's pattern
With mysterious dimensions
In hectic and uncertain world
And then we have to get through
Life's hardest journey
With untrodden depths of the wilderness
Where world seemed to be silently observing
And stepping out from behind the shadow
Of suffering,
Bitterness,
Hostility,
Tough times,
And tangled web..............

You write some nice poetry, very pretty, but if you want comments, do not upload them all at the same time, spread it out over days, it will be more effective.. and you are pushing everyone else's poems into poetry cyber space.... just a suggestion
