What Time

What time is life now, 
beginning or end.
Where is life going ,
where has it been

am I my life? 
Resting, waiting,
lying ,hating.

Life has no time,
just beginning and end.
lost somewhere between
living and life.
Is where I am.

Premium Member Take Life In Stride

Take life in stride

Peaks and valleys as I ventured

Take life in stride

When slipping down, seek the upside

Sell your soul; you’ll be indentured

But heartfelt words can’t be censured

Take life in stride

Life

Life can be door way to fun

friends that run and play in the sun


life can window to the girl you love

sweeter then the light above


but life can be a knife that wants nothing but pain

a monster that makes you in sane


but life can give hope in joy

at the end of the day life is coey ~ jeff

Mine. Forever Lost.

A lover lives a life forlorn:
To walk and weep where lovers mourn.

Forsaken dreamer, cast away:
Will live a life of disarray.

Courageous characters alive:
Will die too early, not survive.

The ingenuity of thought:
It passes slowly, soon forgot.

Amuse the mind at any cost:
What’s left is mine. Forever Lost.

Leftovers

Every day is a meal
But when you don't live life to its fullest
Its as if your leaving leftovers of your life
And no one wants leftovers when something new is available,
You'll never get things done
If your life is nothing but "leftovers"
So enjoy today
Ride it out
Don't bite what you can't chew
And leave no leftovers

Oh Life......

Oh life oh life why have u made me
just as wicked cruel and harsh
as the rude world that i can see
 
 
I wanted to be something
but u didn't allow me
I wanted to do something
but the world couldn't swallow me
 
 
Oh life leave me ,rescue me
from thes wicked world
for i could tolerate no more
as my thoughts remain unfurled ....

Row, Row, Your Boat

Same old places,
 sad, empty faces
  yet another lifetime alone
   love is just gone

Downward stares
 lonesome and scared
  void is all that's left
   were life once was kept

Reap my soul before I wake
 It's just a joke, it's all fake
  Life but a dream, no boat to row
   If I could just change the world, more love would show.

A Paradox of Life

Three D’s of life are dreams, desires, and death
If you have the first, the second will come running and 
the third will be on your doorstep
Dreams stir up desire and too many desires leads to death of soul
So is it better to dream of life or have a life of dreams ?
To die of desire or to let desires die?
Seems much to me like a paradox of life

If Life

If life is to be a pot of soup
Then, who shall the chef be?

If life is to be an Autobike
Who will take the ride?

If life is to be a House 
Then, who shall be the Architect?

If life is to be a football
Who then shall be the player?

If life, if life is to be a poem
Then,who shall be the poet?

You, I, Him ..... God?
You may just know

Life Is Too Short

Sometimes…
There are events in our lives
That wakes us up
And slaps us in the face
To the facts…
That life is too short
And death so abrupt
Like losing a loved one
Or a spouse in a wreck
That any second chances
Is something we should want to respect?
And live life to its fullest
To forgive and to forget
Is the best lesson I’ve learned
Out of this life yet

Just Like a Cigarette

I drown in tears I shed for you 
You drown in clouds of smoke 
I suffer when I look at you 
You suffer when you choke 

There's pain in every screaming lung 
There's sorrow in my heart 
For everytime you take a puff 
Your breaking it apart 

Don't you know your life is changing 
With every smoke you get 
Your life is getting ever shorter 
Just like a cigarette

I Imagine

I imagine a universe without god
What a powerful man !
I imagine a world without man
What a lovely place !
I imagine a country without politicians
What a peaceful land !
I imagine daily trade without businessmen
What a simple life !
I imagine a way of life without machines
What a romantic life !
I imagine a day without women
What a quiet day of rest !
But when I imagine my own self without you
Who I am then …

Life Kills

What is life but an illusion?
A simple game for you to lose in?
Never advancing or skipping ahead,
the game never ends, even if you are dead.
Tormenting nature, Tormenting lives,
Tormenting Death, cutting like knives.
The Afterlife you think is there
is just Oblivion, dark and bare.
Burning darkness kills your soul,
we always score, but never goal.
For time is Death, and Life is Hell,
an ever ringing ominous knell.

Beauty

i strive for beauty but i fail in my accord

beauty demands a price, one i cannot possibly afford

but for beauty i would give my life for without it life seems bleak

for what makes life worth living is that of which we speak

Our God is a God of beauty and he works in great detail

he shapes the world around us and all that it entails

to create our own beauty is to mirror God alone

and to stand in awe of it is to bow down at his throne.

Standing Tall

High above the ground I am towering
It is life down below that I bring
The wind blows, my leaves taking wing
Beside my large mass rests a mere sapling

The sun is new, through the clouds break
Bright rays of light cause me to wake
The day held before I forsake
The future is something I’m ready to make

The life that I breathe is brought by light
It is time that I ought to fight
To write this poem, it took dear time
But through and through it began to rhyme

Philosolife

What is life?
What is love? 
Who knows?
Are they even real?
Or are we blinded 
By what we want to believe
Is lady fate laughing? 
At what we believe in
Is destiny playing a cruel joke?
Making us believe in….. Love
In….. Hope

Questions unanswered
Voices unheard
And lies told 
To make life a question?
Or is it an answer
And were waiting
Patiently waiting
Maybe a second
Maybe a lifetime
For a question and its answer
What is life?
Is life love
Is life religion
Is life you…
