Life

It unfurls in moments, moments of gleam, of a twinkle in your eye, of hope, and ambitions, and joy

It unfurls in moments today, right now, of unspoken thoughts, and emotions, of expressed loves and dejection

It takes for a ride, riding the strong waves, the mind thinks it has all but figured out, with moments it has, and moments yet to be

Mind is but an elusive one, it makes you believe what you must, and unfurls its demons in the darkest times, mind it or don’t

The only way to escape it, is to know you are more than your mind

Life, it unfurls in moments of despair, in tears and in sorrows, and beneath all of the anguish, lies a you ready to be hopeful

To carry your Self with the bag of all your moments, to seek another one, another moment to lament, or another moment to rejoice,

Knowing it will be unknowable is Life

And in that knowing, to carry on with all your might is Living!
