Wow, this is one of the most descriptive and unique poems I've ever read here at AO. I've got some real competition for this POTM.
Great poem and Good Luck![]()
From the first breath one takes
Time is here to take away
As a child one holds much innocence
Too bad it isn't infinite
As one grows purity goes
Why is that.?? No one actually knows
The harshness of reality starts to show
Tainted by the realism of the cons & pros
Choices are to be made & consequences goes along with whatever one chose
Beauty can be anything from a meadow of carnations or just a concrete rose
It is just that simple or just that complicated
Like love which is easily hated
From the weak-broken-hearted
To the Dearly Beloved whose love train that has departed
Everyone's end begins once life started
Like in a previous line I had stated
It is just that simple or just that complicated
Living has much joy mixed with more strife
If one can stir the two & drink up then one can swallow life
When one can't swallow they choke
When one drinks it all up it is no more
Either way it goes one still croaks
Die by suicide or live til the end of the ride
It only takes one, but there are millions of ways to die
If living is to die & to die is to live
Dying would be higher than what it is
For a person's shattered dreams "In death one shall be free"
Like in a previous line I had stated
It is just that simple or just that complicated
One wonders what's next.?? Is there a life after death.??
With no flesh, with no skin
All one has to do is be held accountable for ones' sins
Wait for the judgment call
For ones' soul to rise or fall
Maybe one doesn't have to wait
Maybe ones' energy of essence transfer & one reincarnates
Again one is reborn
To see another sunrise & feel the midst of the early morning
But this time one isn't man
Maybe ones' meaning of life has a different plan
Maybe none of it is true... maybe not
Maybe after one dies their body just rot
To become noursihment & play a role in the "Cirlce of Life" for Mother Earth
Maybe... just maybe that is ones' "rebirth"
No one actually knows
I guess that is how life, death, & rebirth goes
A mystery in time that is forever froze
For one to figure out on ones' own
Like in a previous line I had stated
It is just that simple or just that complicated

Thanks to _gwenibe_ for this awesome sig!
Very well writen one of the best poems I've ever read. I Loved It
Bravo
praise to you oh noble poem writer![]()
Thanks to the both of you for reading my work & taking the time to comment... I am greatful
I will explain what this poem was about & where I was coming from & where I was going with this poem before this thread is locked... Just in case in the future, if anyone runs across this they won't be confused, lost or thinks it is too complicated...
Of course the theme is life, death, & rebirth...
In the life stanzas I was showing how innocent one person starts in the beginning & how quickly that goes away because all the impurity that surrounds the "innocent"...
I also was showing how life has positive & negative "outcomes" & that the choices a person makes consequences goes along with them... I threw in the beauty of life & how it may beholds in a persons' eyes...
And in life there is love in which ppl often try & find but rarely locates it, if one has/did how easily it can hide, leave, or just die out itself... The opposite of love is hate...
It is just that simple or just that complicated....
Life has joy in it, but the harshness can out weigh those joys & if one can accept the both, then one can live on... If not then one will take their own life...
Everyone knows that there is millions of ways to die, but it only takes one...
And to live is to die means the ppl who feels shackled or a prisoner of life & in death would be free... For a persons' shattered dreams in death a person will do nothing but dream...
In rebirth I was going all over the place... If one believe in heaven & hell, or reincarnation, or just doesn't believe in anything...
Anyone of them can be right or not right at all ^_^
It is just that simple or just that complicated....
The heart can't lie... Truth is... I love you!!!
