Life Phases...

Life Phases...

A Poem by Hamza
"

when you make someone face something and then quote about it as if it has happened to you .. i'm amazed ..

"
There was a time when life was just life...
There were moments we wanted to stop forever...
There were days we cherish and long for....

Life was a pretty big bowl of roses to pick from...
Life was a basket of joy and emotions to choose from...

Every second that we spent, was a second so beautiful..
Every moment that passed along smiled along upon us...

Priorities remained little, everything was spontaneous ...
We lived life in a bliss of the spot thoughts...

But nothing remains forever in our hand...
Its like sand slipping continuously through...

We were alone , and will always be...
Rest is just an illusion, a method set by Him...

To remember and cherish all the good times ...
In the times when nothing goes good...

Until,
Life again becomes life...

Very nice imagery and metaphor, especially in the "Life was a pretty big bowl of roses..." line. I liked it ;P Although, and sorry for criticizing, I feel like the "sand slipping away" metaphor is a little bit cliche. But to each his own. Overall, I really liked it :D Great job!!!

thank you so much kelsey .. :)
Yes time does indeed seem to slip through our hands, but what we have left is meant to be cherished and lived to the fullest despite what troubles may arise... thought provoking, life is life. Love the sad note at first then ending on a happy, little tune. True piece through and through ;)

Morning Hamza, this is a very well constructed piece that simply flows from the page. It has a real melancholy feel to it despite the hopeful ending. The opening stanza is gripping.
