In this context, life is personified as a woman.

Life is too short for us to see it as eternity.
Enjoy everybit of it and be good to all and sundry.
Make your mark as a traveller that is sojourning.


She is so tender that you dont allow her to fall
She is so attractive that you continue to gaze at her
You cherish and see her as everything
You struggle not to loose her

You wake up thankful every morning
when she rises up with you
You hustle everyday to make sure she exist
You cover her nakedness so people will not mock her
You spend so much when she is not at peace

Struggling not to loose her you chase her all day
You obey all rules that guides her safety
Even if she so expensive you spend all you have
When she leaves you exist no more
luxuries plans, talent & friends all bid farewell
Life oh life oh life you lament
When she left she took it all

@ifeoluwa88 you can see it all.
