Best Poems Written by Preston Nyanamah

Nemesis

The sun rise from its sleep to glow the earth,
But at a destined time, darkness comes from afar to engulf it.
So too is man and his nemesis, time.
In this galaxy of disgust, we are lost!
From birth to death,
What is it that man is chasing?
With high expectations and great enthusiasms,
He steps into a world of bitter truths. 
He beats his chest in happiness, 
And leaps here and there as if some forces of the universe are calling him.
But he soon realizes that nature is govern by rules he cannot undo. 
He gets to know that his path is bordered by failure and success.
And realizes that death is an inescapable déjà vu. 

Things seem to appear visible, but mere illusions are they. 
Man seems to appear invincible, 
But he cannot spare himself from death.
Things seem to appear beautiful;
But as you take a close look,	
You see a complete mirage.
Stop lusting after illusions:
The charming boys;
The beautiful girls;
The luxuries, and all that is in our galaxy.
Here goes a beautiful woman so charming and respectful,
but here lies her caring husband deep in his grave.
Here goes a wise man who is upset with his wisdom;
He regrets why he even went in search of them.
 Brethren! Look before you leap, this too is life.
