Life
 

[CENTER][B][SIZE="4"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"][COLOR="Gray"]thought of it a blaze
blaze so comforting and roaring as in fireplace
fire of the world engulfing the wisp of my hopes
hopes all destroyed by the cruel conflagration
conflagration giving the ashes
ashes of the desires
desires that are coveted
coveted exuberantly
exuberance so desirous


desirous of earthly joys
desirous of the mundane
desirous of the worldly
desirous of the doubtful

desirous of the destiny
destiny that cannot be escaped
escape that is fetterred
fetter so hindering and impeding
impede so frustrating and painful
pains are the struggle


struggle from impecunious to rich
struggle from ignorance to wisdom
struggle from desiccated to quenched
struggle from start to the end so endless
struggle to find the love not real

struggle engulfing the unaware
unaware given the ageing
ageing dwindling to wrinkles and greys
grey falling in the arms of cadaverous

Ah, cadaverous back from the swoon
swoon of the life


life so domineering to us
life so imperious to us
life infact spending us
life so cruel to us
life's game of imbecility


Ah, this life
want i not this delusion
want i not this fantasy
want i not this mortal
want i not this insincere
want i not this life
Ah, this life

[COLOR="Gray"][SIZE="4"]certainly so uncertain
probably so improbable
kindly so unkind
youth so grizzled
road to the unknown
this is the life
life so uncertain
so improbable
so unkind
so grizzled

Disappoitment
 

Wow ....nice poem revolving around the circle of life
So nice explanation of hope, desire, endless struggle, love, destiny and .....
But what i feel is the disappointment element is at the higher side. Life is not as much disappointing
anyhow this aspect of life is also there.....nice style

@zash

life is nothing but a real illusion!!atleast thats my perception of life..

Life in a Love
 

[CENTER][COLOR="DarkRed"][SIZE="4"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"][B]Escape me?
Never—
Beloved!
While I am I, and you are you,
So long as the world contains us both,
Me the loving and you the loth,
While the one eludes, must the other pursue.
My life is a fault at last, I fear:
It seems too much like a fate, indeed!
Though I do my best I shall scarce succeed.
But what if I fail of my purpose here?
It is but to keep the nerves at strain,
To dry one's eyes and laugh at a fall,
And baffled, get up to begin again,—
So the chase takes up one's life, that's all.
While, look but once from your farthest bound,
At me so deep in the dust and dark,
No sooner the old hope drops to ground
Than a new one, straight to the selfsame mark,
I shape me—
Ever
Removed! [/B][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/CENTER]
