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.

the last tow lines say it all for me Shivam,for all the hurt we feel and receive we still have to "just live"..there is nowhere to hide from cruelty,to be able to stay calm and give love instead of revenge is a gift indeed..

[Shivam Murari]

Just live and keep giving. I agree! :) Thats life for 'good' people. And its because of the good people that the world still exists :)
THanks a lot of reading and reviewing :)

2 Words.. Hat's off. I don't know perhaps i might comment wrongly here.
But "We get up, get sad and cry, oh! " it could be added one more word with "Oh no!"
So it would be more precised.

Well i must say.. i will follow your poems and learn more and more ;)

All the best mate :)

[Shivam Murari]

Thanks for reading and praising.

PS- I can't do "Oh no!" because that would disturb the musical meter of the poem! :) So I used the poetic liberty device here :D

[Vikrantsingh]

;) you know best :D

[Shivam Murari]

Oh no no! :P

I can relate to this when I was in my early twenties and newly married, leaving behind the innocence of true friendship. I was introduced to people leading me to believe they were my friend...not.....it was hard lessons but gained a wealth of experience...now I have a few good friends the others are aquaintences
