Life is Like a Candle





Our time on Earth

Is like a candle

It will come to its last spark 

It will not linger through all time…


But… live life

Like a candle

Be a light in the dark 

A guide to the lost and forlorn…


Yes, life is like a candle

Lived for a purpose

Nothing is in vain

Even to its last flicker…

3 Liners


  

3 Liners


There are so many ways to rhyme a line,

so many ways to scribble mine

liberty of the heart and mind

Words


 

Words

5 letter word

powerful like a sword 

It can build 

and it can destroy 

It can make dreams come true

or it can make things turn around anew.

Everything 

are made up of words

even nothingness 

is a word.

Words 

just a 5 letter word

 valuable as time

more precious than gold

A gift

A treasure

Be Still


 

Dark clouds

from time to time pay

uninvited visit…

Sometimes bringing

devastating winds…

At times a destructive storm…

Washing away 

everything that it can devour…

But..,

Rest assured 

that dark clouds never stay

Because the grace of God

will blow them away…

Do You Know?




Do You Know

I don’t know
if you know 
how it feels 
to be 
in great pain
in deep sorrow
where it hurts 
to your marrows…
where your heart 
would almost 
stop to pump
and your muscles limp
in shivering
and your heart 
won’t stop bleeding
and you get tired 
of breathing
and would just wish
to not wake up
to another morning…

Moments

Moments

I wish to have my moments...

Moments back 

of the embraces that I lost...

Moments of the love

that used to be here...

Moments when my tears will dry

and never fall again...

Moments 

when my heart 

could truly smile and breathe...

Moments back 

and forever embrace...
