This life

Another view on life

This life

As we know

Is it really all

What we think it is?

 

This life

We stride by

Absorbing all the bad

Embracing the little good

 

This life

Is it meant to be

The way it is

Unfair to the bone

 

The rich ones

Get richer

As the poor ones

Get poorer

 

The healthy ones

Wash their hands

In the sickness

Of the many

 

This life

Is it meant to last

Who wants to live forever

In this evilessence

 

Moulding to our hand

Never lasts

When good things happen

Bad strikes in thrice

 

Is it an experiment

Will we ever know?

Walking towards our death

Peace for once

 

We hope…

Yes--the title does really explain it all, as does the ending: "We hope..."

Sometimes hope is all we have left...

"This life
Is it meant to be
The way it is
Unfair to the bone"

Loved that phrase "Unfair to the bone"...So utterly true...

You've captured 'life' here perfectly...Thanks for sharing :)
