I disappear for months on end......just my life but I always come back!
Life is a lesson that never is learned
A corner in life you've never quite turned
The answer you seek then the question it changes
Many layers it entails. . . . . Heights......depths and ranges
Sorrow and sadness and humour and love
Hatred and friendship that fits like a glove
Turmoil and chaos and beauty so sweet
Lust and passion it feels like a treat
Fullfilment that's gained through many a cause
Then ripped from your soul by the evilest of jaws
The heartache the tears the numbness inside
You've cried and you've cried as a part of yous died
Then laughter again and warmness and fun
The clouds once again clear and out pops the sun
The flowers they bloom and bees they take flight
It's true life is constantly a struggle and fight
The turmoil inside the feelings it brings
The way it can make you do stupid things
The happiness inside the glow of your heart
Desicions are made that aren't always smart
Life is an up and life is a down
As high as a kite then one big meltdown
Tears of joy will be shed tears of sadness will flow
Apparently this is how as humans we grow
These feelings are in each of us everyday
As humans we cannot keep them at bay
The struggle is real the emotional ride
It's true life didn't come with a manual or guide
Some days all you can do to keep you afloat
Is take comfort and look at this poem I've wrote
It's a big ass world and your not alone
It's normal to want to have a good moan
Seek comfort in friends , accept smiles from strangers
Don't shut yourself off in there lies the danger
The fog it decends but fight till it clears
Wether it's a fight through laughter or unhappy tears
What's the point of a struggle if you do not win
To fight it and battle isn't a sin
Life is a challenge but a blessing as well
It's hard but it's doesn't need to feel like your living in hell
Take the good with the bad, The happy with sad
The light with the dark, in life leave your mark
Take comfort in knowing we all struggle too
Happiness is something we all pursue

- Comment from author about the poem: It's s mixed up poem as I wanted to convey hos many conflicted and complicated emotions everyone goes through on a daily basis. I think as humans were all really good at keeping our sadness and problems to ourselves. ...forgetting how many have had similar experiences that we can share and offer support

Ohhhhhhhhhh JOOLES ~ this is beautiful and so full of flowing emotion ~ straight from your heat ! Love the structure rhyming couplets in balanced quatrains ~ perfect pulsating poetry. The theme that life is unscripted and spontaneous and full of highs & lows is something we can all empathise with. You have expressed it perfectly !
