Life
Dropping down from nowhere,
I looked for you everywhere.
Day in and day out,
look here what I have got.
Death and sorrow down the lane,
tackling down with every pain.
Every time I moved astray,
you were always there to show the way.
Nothing was there before nor would it ever exist,
Now is the only thing that ever exists.
Nothing is good,
Nothing is bad.
Nobody can see you except me,
Nothing is there to stop me.
About this poem
I have written it to show how black and white life is.
