Sometimes....We Just Live

This is a poem dealing with the constant heartbreak-move-on nature of the present era. The various points of this phase has been depicted in the poem.

I've been thinking for some time 
Sitting here and remembering words that rhyme 
Poem and songs take the stress away 
And if u write them yourself they are drowned in bay. 

People come and people go 
We get up, get sad and cry, oh! 
Then we remember the beautiful times we had 
We think we have lost our clad 
Experiences only teach us and show we are stronger than this 
But we are always stuck thinking "Why only I was chosen for this?" 
Everyone has pain, some have more , some have less. 
We keep wondering, "why the irregularity?"
And then somehow we forgive 
Sometimes...We Just Live. 

Similar things happened to me again and again 
I kept wondering why I put my life in drain 
People came to me, but all they did was betray
Others came and held me and made the thoughts sway 
With time they left too 
Every time I knew, I just knew. 
I get mixed with emotions of rage, betrayal and revenge 
But then I knew I couldn't avenge 
I am not made for this, I am meant to just give 
Sometimes....We Just Live

Nature never deceives us; it is always we who deceive ourselves...then there wont be any friend or foe...
so emotional and heart touching.It talks about siting alone watching a bay pouring the sad and pleased memories into it ...few people come and go like a wind....awesome poetry.yea it made an effect indeed.

It ends in a compromise... :(

And that it seems as that God has so less to give... We've gotta work our own ways ;)

[Shivam Murari]

Indeed, we do! Thanks for coming :)

very well written , we should all just appreciate the beautiful aesthetic of life itself instead of questioning each unfortunate event

[Shivam Murari]

Hey thanks so much :)

Betrayal really hurts and hurts us deep .One cannot come to terms with it.But you have reconciled to this fact in your life '"But then I knew.........we just give"- as most people do because they cannot avenge themselves and have to continue living. Good write !!!

Yes, it did make a positive effect on me to remember to encourage, and uplift others, and to allow them to trust me as betrayal hurts so very much!
Your message is clear, and strikes a chord for others to remember how lonely life may be so they may be better friends one to the other!!
