Many things in life

Many things in life

A Poem by Lana
"

Death & stuff

"

You can die from many things in life

Skin and time, only seams in cloth

You can be untied and sewed back

But you always fear death

From many things in life


You are in awe from many things in life

Greed and crime, only strings attached

To an old guitar, only played by the top

Pyramids can’t crash, but you always fear they might


You can die from many things in life

Crickets at night, grapes crushed for wine

Survival instinct, never cease to die when time

Is at the door and says

You have to die from the many things in life


Whether good or bad 

The door opens and locks

For all the deaths 

From the many things in life

beautiful poem. Every image you conceive is strong and original. I commend you for the way you can play with the sounds of words (e.g.: skin and time/ greed and grime). A truly inspiring piece. Thank you for sharing :)
