Life, Love, Envy, Heart, And Hope Poem by Kenny Mantinelli

Life... Life is so much to bare,
So much to care,
So much that's unfair,
Sometimes overwhelming.

Love... Love is so much to expect,
So much to check,
So much to affect,
Sometimes unreachable.

Envy... Envy is so much to hate,
So much to bait,
So much to grate,
Sometimes upsetting.

Heart... Heart is so much giving,
So much receiving,
So much forgiving,
Sometimes breaking.

Hope... Hope is so quickly running out,
So quickly causing doubt,
So quickly running a different route,
Sometimes.. Sometimes hope leaves your mind.

But with fun and games come and gone,
With smiles and laughter leaving with dawn,
With the opportunities endlessly coming upon,
They still all leave.. Quicker than they arrive.
