Inside Life

Days will come when you;
Wish you'll vanish like vapour,
Those days will last;
Longer than the second world war,
Minutes will seem like decades.
And hours like centuries.
You'll wish the clock runs with the speed of lighting,
You'll pray for the cup to pass
Aha!,it will stare blankly at you
It will crawl like a snail,
And everything bad will find a place in your life.

Some days will be like honey,
You will take in every sweetness and want no more,
Green pastures and hearty laughter will surround you
You will dance to the beats,
Drink to happy times
You'll wish those days lasts longer
But it will move faster than your shadow.


Life is full of hills and valleys,
Sometimes our smile will spread like;
A tint of sunshine on ripening tomato
Other times our frown will deepen like;
That of a sheep dragged to the slaughter house
Our bones will be broken by pain
We will become particles in the flowing motion of the wind,
Wherever it tosses us to;we will follow.

In life,two things are certain:
We must taste the honey and the vinegar
Our soul desires honey,
But Vinegar will make our heart strong like olumo rock
Our souls will glow from bitter waters.

Amidst the journey,we most not loss our sanity,
Must not let the storm blow the seed out of us,
We should take the storm and sail through it
And Stand like the lion, he doesn't turn away from any.
