Sometimes....We Just Live

This is a poem dealing with the constant heartbreak-move-on nature of the present era. The various points of this phase has been depicted in the poem.

I've been thinking for some time 
Sitting here and remembering words that rhyme 
Poem and songs take the stress away 
And if u write them yourself they are drowned in bay. 

People come and people go 
We get up, get sad and cry, oh! 
Then we remember the beautiful times we had 
We think we have lost our clad 
Experiences only teach us and show we are stronger than this 
But we are always stuck thinking "Why only I was chosen for this?" 
Everyone has pain, some have more , some have less. 
We keep wondering, "why the irregularity?"
And then somehow we forgive 
Sometimes...We Just Live. 

Similar things happened to me again and again 
I kept wondering why I put my life in drain 
People came to me, but all they did was betray
Others came and held me and made the thoughts sway 
With time they left too 
Every time I knew, I just knew. 
I get mixed with emotions of rage, betrayal and revenge 
But then I knew I couldn't avenge 
I am not made for this, I am meant to just give 
Sometimes....We Just Live

Nature never deceives us; it is always we who deceive ourselves...then there wont be any friend or foe...
so emotional and heart touching.It talks about siting alone watching a bay pouring the sad and pleased memories into it ...few people come and go like a wind....awesome poetry.yea it made an effect indeed.

I can clearly identify with the emotions and feelings here. It is something many of us have dealt with (especially when it comes to those online). Over time we may learn to expect it, but we never really get used to it. It still causes pain each time it happens.

Hope that answered you authors' note questions. Very nice work. :)

[Shivam Murari]

It indeed is quite true, great lady :)

this was a sad poem, great content, full of actual problems... happenings in our lives daily, our pains, our stresses... its all their incorporated in a way that makes the readers (me anyway) know you feel the same way. I like poems that are like this, that shows the writer feels the words that they are writing. but it's true, the fact that sometimes we just live... just have to let go... and be okay with it, no longer searching for something better, or getting revenge. You worded it perfectly. :) I loved it.

[Shivam Murari]

Most of do feel like this at some point of time, I am sure. I am glad you received the poem so well! Thank you so much :)

[Bowers]

This poem made me feel sad, it does not seem as if it was written in a happy frame of mind. Hopefully you feel better after having written it and are better now.
I agree sometimes we just live - as Bill Hicks said, 'life is a ride'. We just sometimes let it happen.

[Shivam Murari]

You're right Jonathan. Sometimes, we just prefer to live, after all! And yea, I felt really nice after writing it as I said
"If u write them yourself they are drowned in bay"
Besides, the poem was well received and I love the fact that it has more than 500 views! I never thought that would happen! Many accomplished poets on the site don't have so many views. I am just so thankful to everyone :) ^_^
