Life
By Ayesha Raees
Like a forest, it grows
Animal lives so does the dreams
The leaves are hungry so are we
For sunlight, water, space and meat
Like a dog, it runs
Through the trees and busy streets
Have to work hard to feed a family
Until there is no home and then it collapse into its own misery
Like a sea, it crashes
Breaking the rocks while mending nothing
It carries on and on
With its own problems, rising…
Like a path, it’s separate
It’s never continuous, it always change
Its nor surprising not it’s strange
‘Cause it will either fall into a pit or climb a mountain range
Like a war, it’s hard never great
Some people loses while other wins
The graves hold a message
Of never repeating a mistake
Like a book, it’s unexpected
Day after day, page after page
The story goes on
Till the final chapter of the judgment day
