Life: A Token Free Roller-Coaster Poem by Umul Baneen Brohi

Life: A Token Free Roller-Coaster

Rating: 4.7


Life tastes like steak,
Yet it is bleak,
Life is like merry-time tale,
Yet it is astoundingly pale,

Life is a tide,
Sometimes low, sometimes high,
Life is like a mirror,
So crystal clear,

Life is hard,
But not impossible,
It's a dream,
O! Man it's a gift so supreme,

Life is lived once,
So live it to the fullest,
Life is too precious,
Do not destroy it,

Life is a matter of moments,
Of laughter and tears,
But for those who overcome fear
Its time to cheer,

Life is a fusion of confusions,
A few confounding aspirations,
Life is not a bed of roses,
Yet we never want to loose it,

Life is like a roller coaster,
That goes up and down,
It's like cross-road tunnels,
No one knows which tunnel leads to destination.
