Virtues of Being a Being..

this was written a year back when i had finally got a moment of solitude after losing out on some things i never thought i would ..

O human, you are a being...

Your existence, is so precious..

O human, you exist, you sustain..

Your deeds are miraculous..

O human, you are a being..

You feel, what you feel..

O human, you expect, you express...

Your emotions are special...

O human, you are a being..

You desire, what should not be..

O human, you crave, you fall..

Your desires reach up to the forbidden..

O human, you are a being..

You smile, when you get to it..

O human, you forget, the end..

You believe you have, yet you haven't reached..

O human, you are a being..

You cry, when it ends..

O human, you lament, you kneel..

You want it back, what never existed..

O human, you are a being..

You beg, to go back..

O human, you stop, you turn..

To see a wall, you yourself made...

O human, you are a being..

You turn again, you wait..

O human, you wait, for nothing..

For what was, was; what is, is...

O human, little do you know..

That you chose, you moved..

O human, you did, but don't agree..

Instead of a straight path, you chose a curvy one...

O human, you are a being...

Bound to commit mistakes..

O human, but you must know..

Mistakes are a way, to reach to the righteous..

O human, you are a being..

Learning forever, learning forever..

O human, with each little mistake..

You step forwards, towards perfection.

'O human, you are a being..
You desire, what should not be..
O human, you crave, you fall..
Your desires reach up to the forbidden..'
Brilliant poem, your words reflect everything we are and do. Written with immense craft, there is a very strong structure and repetition that I love. Amazing poem.

Hi Hamza, Loved the sentiment and some of the lines are sublime. Thought it became a little laboured in places and in length and perhaps a shorter punchier piece would have more impact and meaning.

[Hamza]

thank you and would keep your advice in mind next time ... :)

In an age where life is cheap and the material is valued over the spiritual and humane, it is uplifitng to see such a young man write of being human and a person and the necessity of taking the road less travelled for a full and sentient life with such clarity and passion. I'm am sooo impressed! Wonderful Hamza!
