LIFE IS A METAPHOR

I have this strong feeling
An urge to be right
Not making mistakes with my life
I want to live forever
For ever young
But time passes like wind
Behaving young looses meaning
A forever youth is a biological impossibility
What is youth? Is it a mind set or an age
What is life if death has the last smile over the flesh?
Life is a question

Life must have a purpose
But what is that purpose?
Search for a purpose is an imagination
An ideal lost like a shadow getting into a light
But life tastes better in this loss
Is purpose self created or God given?
It is an ideal set do high above sight
A philosophy impossible to share
Life is faith
Hope in more than a fleeting flesh

My life must count
In this life and beyond my living years
Certainly time is forever but life on Earth is a deep wish it were
Since it not, it matters that we are together
Thanks to Sana we are not alone
Wondering in the wild like we never lived
Our stories will be told for someone after us
The songs we wrote will be sung
People will hope we will be somewhere in the sky listening
Prayers will be made for us
Our voices and words will still be respected
Life is company

Life is nothing
Life is what you have made it
It is a gift
Given for nothing
But it is everything
Life is a metaphor
What you say it is
It shall be

OVERSTAYED VISIT

You don't need me So I thank you for the good you have done I say it in silence That way you will not sense the silent good bye It hurts me that our business in your face is done But I will remember we were brothers I will pray for you For my prayer is that you fly high and steady in the strong winds I will not forget that you helped me And the much I am or will be will acknowledge you But tonight I will pack what I can And leave your house brother Not groaning For all of us are guests in each others lives In my case I must have overstayed my visit I hope love never grows old I will find peace when it thrives again But now It is obviously used.

THE PARADOX

The fact that the reason to hold on is bigger than the reason to give up Does not trivialize your pain The fact that you neither shed a tear nor made a sound Does not mean you never cried The fact that you smiled all through the ceremony does not mean you were happy The fact that you are alive and happy Does not mean you aren't dead A strange ghost animating your body Not your dream self The fact you woke up with a plan Does not mean you aren't drifting through life The fact that you love a song Does not mean it makes you happy The fact that you woke when the alternative seemed lucrative Tells that you have outsmarted the paradox once more

KINDRED

I wish I had a friend Whose loyalty would never bend Walk with me miles on end Be plain and never pretend A cynic who would blend But to me be a kindred A spirit that knows me Keep me and my secrets just as I would  To the very end
