Etched on my grave

Poetic Dan

Here we go again, should be etched on my grave 
For all of my ripples and way too many waves
The love I have and the light I've endless tried to give
Was matched with as much darkness as I felt I've received 

For the good in the bad and the bad in the good
Tattooed on my hands to be understood if shooked 
Lifes a game of riddles and conquests to indure 
Not just in books, screens, and behind closed doors

It's all but a stage ready to play the part
Before we all end up 8ft under the stars
Then, "here we go again" will be the end and a start.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I laugh and cry each day because the struggle is real. This was written about an hour ago and I'm truly exhausted with life but I'll keep giving it all I have till end. Never could it be said that I didn't show all my light and dark, with all my heart.

    Here we go again would be great on the grave of a Hindu that believed in reincarnation. A fun read
