daIly,
stoically
we climb real
Mountain
on foot...
on the crucial climb
of life...
because we came
of long ago,
and we passed
from the present,
into the unknown
future...
Life steps forward
as if they were set back...
we walked so much
in life but never
we managed to distance us
from the origins...!
Ever alone i walk the path
Barely seeing barely feeling
All that remains is ever lasting night
Old yet new pain the only change,
Why does it hurt
Why am I ever alone unable to sleep
Unable to care
I walk my path alone with no hope
Staring silently up at the bitter stars shining above
Who mock me always
For what I had lost
I walk the path of life
In time pain fades
the hurt escapes
new paths are paved
over fresh landscapes
the stroll, a toll, the walk of life
i walk the life road
alive i lead road of life
when dead, life leads me ?
When you start doubting yourself
You know that it is time
To rearrange the brain into
A place where you can find
A little vacation
To visit when your paused
The ego needs a lecture
With the damage life has caused.
Some days I'm only one
Selfish, I can't give
Others I am many
In this world I live.
So many species
Walking on this globe
I am just a few among
Those who wear a judges robe
The chemistry of this earth
Leaves me so amazed
What more can I do
When I'm lost in its maze
I look in the mirror
I stare at my green eyes
I say to my twin
When you fall is when you rise.
I am whole when I am me
Not many, all or few
I find peace and comfort
With the best job I can do.
Walk began at birth..
Only two roads to travel.
One to bliss and one to pain.
Had to make a choice..
For the right road toward home,
or the road that's travelled most.
Felt deep within heart,
Life would never, never end,
Even though we say goodbye.
Walking on one day.
Made the narrow way my choice.
Prayer is needful on my walk.
Easy, no, never.
Although benefits are great.
Heaven is my final goal.
My friend don't wait.
For the time is very short.
Come along and walk with me.
When we meet up there.
We can say hello again,
and play on sunshine mountain.
Son always shining.
You can join me on my walk,
As we praise Him forever..
Preparations have been made
Over a year of long glorious planning
Flowers, tux and food have been picked
A long lovely, flowing beaded gown, a real southern belle
Organ piping the bridal march,
Glowing bride and nervous groom oblivious
Forever bound into the marrital
Walk of life. Presenting to you
Life long mates. Hands clutched,
smiles wide, hearts full, expecting the best to come!
For the Walk to remember contest
I've been through good times and bad times..
I've been through it all.
I've been hurt, I've been down and I've been up.
I've stood tall and I've stood small.
But no matter what, I've always praised God.
I've been a sinner but I've been saved.
It's the walk of life that made me this way.
It gets rough and it gets tough.
But God makes me strong.
Don't give up and hold your head high.
Do your best in the walk of life.
Young, vigorous and full of life
These are my adolescent years
Neither worry nor a care
No visions of the upcoming fears
Charismatic, virtuous and free
Beautiful as a fully blossomed rose
These are my teenage years
No responsibility; just a stunning present pose
A young mother, a young wife
Built around much chaos and constant despair
These are my early twenties
No fear of growing older, though the time is coming near
Career oriented and focused; my beauty still remains
The captivation which once drew a crowd
That captivation is slowly fading in vain
My early thirties have come upon me
My insecurities running amok
Sadly all I felt I had was beauty
And certainly I’ve been struck
Beauty, fame and fortune
Something in which all of us wish to gain
But not at the cost of our loved ones
And not at the cost of someone else’s pain
I have taken a new outlook on life
As the years unavoidably pass me by
My first priority is family and friends
And learning to laugh until we cry
So in the end, what matters the most?
Is it fame, fortune and personal gain?
Or is it the moments we share with our friends
And the family that still remains?
