All that is life

Are we to stand without fear,
That eats us up inside,
Continuing to stay clear,
Of the worries we try to hide.

Moving on forward and surpassing all troubles,
While remaining in focus,
Still respecting our struggles,

Remembering the days of glory,
Sometimes start to fade,
It's all written like a story,
But all of the pages have yet to be made.

Spare all of the things of negative sort,
Time is forever forthcoming,
For all that is life, may be far too short.

It's all written like a story,
But all of the pages have yet to be made.

I loved that line because I love the way that you have put it.

This poem is very true about life. Seems you have such a positive outlook, wish it where that easy for me.
Love the way you have written this one out.
Wise words, from a talented man.
Great job

This is something great! You've portrayed the true meaning of life, which many people fail to understand, in such simple words. The rhymes are great as well. I loved it!

Thanks so much for your kind words. I'm delighted you enjoyed it! :)

This time the flow puts the reader at ease and allows them to delve deeper into the concept of the subject. Sometimes a reader puts the breaks on and can't travel emotionally with s poem because they become intimidated by it's complexity. You're able to write a complex subject without that threat. Good :) I.I.

This poem was written right around when I first started writing. I'm glad to hear that I seem to be on the right track. Thank you for your kind words:)

That depends on what track you want to take your writing on! lol. Some poets want to be complicated. Different styles reach different audiences. If your goal is to write poetry anyone can read than you have a gift which has already got to on your way :) Some would say that the job of a poet is to see something particular about life, in a different way than the norm, then describe it so people can feel/see/experience it the way they did. That you've got. I.I.

Such encouraging words. A thousand thank you's for this. I try to make each one better than the last. :)
