O this life...
A river of pain
Breathing beings
Can have no brink...
All I learned
How to sink!
O this life... A river of pain A beautiful short poem exposing the hard facts of life.Well written. Col Muhammad Khalid Khan
Short n poignant written in wry ink presented excellent as to the metaphor and the sinking feel portrayed well. Great to read u again.
Wow! Brilliant poem. Any interpretation depends on how that last line is taken. It can be the conclusion of what precedes it, or it can be the breaking point. It may be the realization that after knowledge comes self-awareness, and that sinking feeling.
So well articulated the pain and misery of life and our helplessness!
Excellently chosen image- it takes command of your poem and your readers
So beautifully put. All i learned....how to sink. Brilliant! Yes, life makes us feel that way. A sensitive soul knows the pain.10
