My Life Poem by Omolola Oladotun David

My Life

Rating: 5.0


My life,
A Mirror of Many Antagonism
A Believe in Deception
Rooted in love surrounded by Thorns

My life,
Beautiful it may seem
But Beyond anyone can see
Lies the fallacy of their visual scenes

My life,
Embedded in fear
Yet surrounded by flair
With uncertainty not so fair

My life,
Its a Shadow of what I Feel
A Mirage of what they See
Yet, an Irony of what we all Perceive

My life,
Though not my Picture
Yet my Future
A Paradigm shift into Confusion

My life is defined by the Things I do
Yet the Things I beg not to do
My life is a bundle of many Pieces
A Marche embedded by the phrase called Peace

My life,
Not a Conclusion for the Now
Rather a Confusion with no Sound

Good poem. Life is not how you fall but the courage you put into it. Yes, your life is not a conclusion nor confused but evolving. Keep hope alive

Very entertaining read, Omolola. It 's being honest and yet trying to be smiling while writing.
