Life's Meaning Poem by Anoucheka Gangabissoon

Life, to you is this new song
For you are made of one huge throng
Yet, walking in your midst
I feel so alone, devoid of any jist!

O life, pray tell me your meaning
I can see not any of your aim
If you are not made of eternal feeling
So easily, you are and you cease, how lame!

O life, broken and shattered
In my mirror, I see only a being so battered
Without your illusion of beauty and gain
Surely, surely, gone would be my pain!

O life, I await, the time of your end, patient
As a parrot waiting for its eggs to hatch, with a love so ardent!
