Facing Pain... Stiring Hope


Thinking of the past, life is a lesson
Thinking of the future, life is a race
Hanging for it to be better
Don't know what can happen.

Managing the resources, not enough for it purpose
Trying to make it better, does it really count?
Struggling here and there
It will yield somewhere.

Teachers of life, giving knowledge
Everything around teaches.
Listening and trying
When will it be better?

Doors are open, ways are rough
Struggling continues
It will end somewhere
Better to try than to wait.

What can be done than to continue the race
Thinking it will be better definitely one day.
What we do than to leave it to faith?
As the race continues, a better tomorrow we face.

I wrote this poem within 20 minutes approximately. I don't know what I am writing, I just allow the words in and put it down.
Life continues for we that are still in it. Either good or bad, something will happen but we do hope it's something better than what we have in mind.
Even when we are struggling, we are still hoping. No one wants to fail. I hope you like it and I will like to hear from you.


I am a writer (amateur), a lover, a mother, selfless (Altruistic) and a believer of Christ (I don't discriminate). I go with the flow but holding onto my belief. A passionate and hopeful individual. That's who I am.
