We Are Riding On The Same Boat Poem by RIC BASTASA

we do not have to tell really
it is useless to say so

that we are riding on the same boat
on same destination

i lie, if i tell you, that i do not suffer.

i have a Pandora box with me.
i do not open it, You have suffered enough too.

For you to listen to mine
is but a cliche, another monotonous redundancy.

let me differ somehow
i still make fun, that is my inner core

for Fun defeats whatever face of misery is there.
IT is light in darkness, it is sanity in madness.

Do not be solitary. IT is true it is deep and
stuffed with so much wisdom. But what for?

Tomorrow may never come.
And today, is the only moment, i still have with you.

Suffer the song with its singing.
Learn to love death, with what Life is still there.

The only dew to the Leaf soon dries.
The sun, how big and warm, soon sets.

This is a message of Joy.
This is the word of Today.

Every second, i savor. Life is nothing but
a breath, it is not a curriculum vitae.
