Every Life

Of dreams and shadows that should never die
Autumn and spring which keep us alive.
Of the barren lands and rainy days that teach us to cope
The challenges we may face, what tomorrow holds.

Of mayhem and harmony, the turmoil around
War and peace the soldier shouts out.
Of cries and smiles, the nature of man
The ungratefulness he possesses in today’s time.

Of prayer and curse, keeping God in mind
Rich and poor, the distinction between lines.
Of black and white, the world as it seems
The wait for the morning after yesterday’s dream.

Of love and hate, with passion and tumult
Blue skies and dark seas, the beauty of the world.
Of angels and devils, the human and Satan within us
The faith, the reality of it all thus.
