Journey

Who doesn't face upheavels in life? 
Survive those, who're operative of the glory, 
Succumb those, who get exultant, 
Thou shall be eleemosynary when life gives you perks.

Who doesn't face downfalls in life? 
Don't hide it, you don't gonna deny it, 
Just drink your pain away, a little at a time, 
Fight! Gain the strength again to get up on your knees. 

Who doesn't face love in life? 
Gives you something to lose, and even I do, 
But honey, love can knock again, life wouldn't,
It isn't the end of the world, 'amate a ti mismo'

Who doesn't face fear in life? 
Face it luv, as cowards die many times
Before their death, the valiant face it only once
And so they live forever, even in the afterlife. 

These are just ephimeral glimpse of emotions, 
It can't despirit you! You're a conqueror! 
It's the life's journey, our naive heart is yet to lead, 
It was just a page, the eerie book is yet to read.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
