Premium Member The Theory of 'Hardness'
   Life is hard
     Then you die

     It gets easier
       the harder you try

Stilled Voice (For John Gawsworth, 1921-1970)
Poetry is easy, life is hard,
And so the bravest bard
Begins to buckle with the weight of brutal years—
His singing disappears....

Unfair
May I humbly say a word
Why you make my life so hard
Though I pray for your mercy
Never you send returns I see
Is it not quite unfair my Lord...

Spoiled Little Brats
Spent two days with a good old friend
And her kids - two spoiled little brats.
Such life is hard to comprehend -
I'd rather live with cats....

Why?
Why do I care?
Why was I there?
Why do I love you?
Why do I want to?
Why is life so hard?
Why do worries bombard?
Why? why? why?...

The Meaning of Life
Life isn't hard to figure out

We are

And why we choose to make

The simple complex and difficult

Not only for ourselves

But other's as well...

Life?
death must be easy, cause life is hard
life is long but, deaths short

time is a number but, age is a plus
age equals experience, time subtracts a sum...

Life Is Hard
Am not saying I want to die
But I don’t want to live as well
Why its so harsh
Why it too hard
Am not saying am tired
But it hurts every time I breathe....

Being You
Living your life is hard,
To be yourself and proud,
Everyone else just disregard,
And don’t follow the crowd,
Life is not a group discussion,
Others are just company....

It
is good
to learn from
experience-
yet
wise
to glean
from those who
learnt life the hard
way
as
minds,like
parachutes
when open,work
best.

Premium Member Ants
I see an ant crawling along the train platform.
We are like ants in the universe's vast form.
Life as hard as stone, like this ant I am alone,
But I know I will return home, each milestone....

Inside
Seasons change as years go by,
winter’s cold and summer dry.

Life is hard in many ways,
yet rings are formed as seasons change.

So, although not but bark we see,
inside there is a true beauty.

We Could Be Million Different Things
We could be million different things
But life hits hard, it bites and stings
And circumstances that prevailed 
And bad decisions we have made
Turned us in what we are; it’s sad
And you are wishing you were dead...

Premium Member Sand Timer
If I held all of the world in the palm of my hand
and it was in my gift to give or to take, or share
I would give it all to halt the trickle of the sand,
indeed, myself, for without you, life is hard to bear....

The Nobility of the Clown
You make us laugh at the terror of life in a measured way,
Lets look think and react to new profanity,
Let's get jarred, the fool bows before the bard,
Because he knows life is hard,
He lives in perfect empathy......

Growing Up Part 1
Little boy
drown in misery.

Little boy
sing till your lungs give out.

Little boy
make your own mistakes,
because though this life is hard
its only yours alone.

So
scream your insanity
and own your own
sick personality....
