Some Thoughts To Ponder: Viii

Rating: 5.0


kings fade
kingdoms too fade
vain glory is
what's left

even the self with
which we flirt in a
life-long affair
is left to fade

body, the seat of illusion
body, the seed of desire
too fades away on the
dissolving horizon of time

hmm... its like... we cannot live each moment unless we die in each! life is like some sublimation, ur essence of solid is constantly being converted to vapours, vapour is as true as solid, but it seems like nothingness to us. a huge piece of poetry. loved it. thank you.

Philosophy of truth permanence and illusion well portrayed

none truer than this can be said. yet, those are the things man fights for. we fight for things that fade Wherein lies the true worth? love doesnt fade, but fulfills. God said... even heaven and earth would fade. his word though would live.. In the beginning was the word, and the word was God. God is love.. :) . good poem milady.
