Life

Silence sometimes bodes well for life,
Without any events, without any strife.
Yet for the reason of sole directions,
Moving ahead with the best intentions,
Life chooses for you surprise and shock,
Uncertain things do arrive and knock.
Someday it can be a pleasant news,
Sometimes it might be of repaying the dues.
Ardour, love, compassion and rage,
An elated heart or a broken cage.
Right on the walk are thorns galore,
Yet we hold on to the life we adore.
Living on and leaving alone,
Everything that hurts.
I wish to live and so would I,
Braving the darkness that lurks.
