Life Poem by Elias Ng'ang'a K.

life

like a roller coaster, rolling in circles
A speed skater, skidding swiftly down the deeps
Taking you around, from top to bottom
From the finish line to the starting mark
Precious beyond Gold, yet most disputably abandoned
Life takes you in circles, rest you give in


Trials and tribulations, try to become
triumphant upon us
Disease and deceit, defeats and wears us down
Money, might and pride makes people count
Hatred hits brothers, jealousy becomes fashionable
Love lives far away, in the thorny mountains
Life takes you in circles, rest you give in


In a split impulse, there is a vacuum
Honesty hosts faithfulness in the far oceans
Unconscious search for fortunes, displaces humanity
The patience cheque can't be cashed
life is now a vigorous vanity of Search, search for all what left us
Life takes you in circles, rest you give in.
