At Least That’s What They Say - Day 57

in #poetry6 years ago

People say a lot of meaningless things with good intentions when trying to comfort someone who has suffered loss. But a hug in silence works better.

There’s always time,
At least that’s what they say.
But time ran out,
At least for him that day.

Time stands still,
At least that’s what they say,
When having fun
But it’s the other way.

Time heals all things
At least that’s what they say.
It also wounds,
Reminding you each day.

But life goes on,
At least thar’s what they say.
But that’s not true
When hope has gone away.

And all things end,
At least that’s what they say.
But I trust not,
That’s how I face my day.

This one made me shed a tear! ❤️

good poetry ... reminds me of an ever shorter time, it does not feel like it's just morning again

The disappointment of life always makes us no longer believe in any word, and time immerses us

Beautiful stanzas, @firststeps 😊
