sometimes

fleeting thoughts

philosophy poem

sometimes i sit and compose
sometimes i simply cannot…
sometimes i get up and fight
sometimes i simply cannot…

sometimes i laugh to much
and end up in tears
sometimes i try to cry
but my eyes remain dry

sometimes a lie can saw a life
sometimes a truth can kill you
sometimes enemies save your life
sometimes near ones betray you

sometimes friends are everything
sometimes they pull you down…
sometimes hatred turns into love
sometimes love takes away life…

sometimes a smile can win hearts
sometimes it robs everything…
sometimes a tear can move you
sometimes it wets your heart…

sometimes you wait for something
and it never comes…
sometimes at your merest thoughts
the thing is yours…

sometimes the lowliest rise to the top
sometimes he is pushed there…
sometimes the best too looses
sometimes he is pulled down…

sometimes mountains appear as plains
sometimes a valley doesnt seem deep…
sometimes a bird looses its wings
sometimes there’s no morning…

sometimes you have to say something
but end up tounge-tied…
sometimes your ears are open
and you hear the unsaid…

sometimes the dead
speak from their grave…
sometimes the alive
forget their responsibilty…

sometimes someone needs a friend
sometimes the friend needs you…
sometimes people read and forget
sometimes they remember, yet nothing…

some things in life never change…
some things in life seem so obvious…
except sometimes…
