Memories like dusk fade away
Into a night of black and blue
The bad ones change shape and size
Only the good ones stay true

She said she'd love him or die
He walked away without a thought
She hung herself with his tie

I am a wandering soul
With no destination in mind
I travel with a simple passion
To see what I will find

Life throws you a curveball
You think it's coming straight
You put your hand down to catch it
And it whacks you on your pate

Pleasure is not unlike pain
One joy, the other strife
The biggest purpose of both
Is to remind us that we're alive

I find Five by Four is twenty
Thoughtfully reading your poetry

You rock on...!!

Arun - It's a good start :-)
IITG - Thanks again.
Life throws you a curveball
One of the deepest thoughts in this poem but so simply written!
life said to death
it's a downright pity we met
death said to life
I'm always around but you forget
Exactly! Here one dialogue I’m remembering from the movie, Gladiator. It was:
”I knew a man who once said, "death smiles at us all; all a man can do is smile back.”
Cheers!!
I'm blogrolling you.
Roy, Glad you liked!
IITG - I think that's a stellar idea:)
brilliant work...
Pleasure is not unlike pain
One joy, the other strife
The biggest purpose of both
Is to remind us that we're alive
I think if we all understood and accepted this idea, life would be so much more meaningful and simpler!
