Pleasure And Pains Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Pleasure And Pains

Rating: 5.0


I desired pleasure and it I got,
But with the pleasure pains I brought,
I desired love and it I got,
But with the love hates I brought.
The day when I started thinking,
I started thinking and I felt my being,

I am struggling to minimize my pains,
I am struggling to maximize my pleasure
I know pains of life I cannot not erase
I am not a creator I am a creature
But with love in my heart life I manage,
It's love that gives me a lot of courage!

Pleasure we get remains for short period and sometimes pleasure turns into pain. This amazes mind very often. With love hate is brought. This provokes thought. But love allows us to tolerate every pain we get. Love gives unlimited courage to lead life breaking many obstacles. A nice message is transferred. An excellent poem is penned...10
