Uncertainly..... Certain!!

Thank you all for the support and suggestions....
Here is some food for thought on a serious note...
All you reactions and words are welcome as usual!
Try and go slow... go with the pauses....
Here goes.....

Uncertainly... Certain!



Life is uncertain.
And death; even more so…
So what are we to do….?
Plan our futures well…..?
Or live and love each moment
Like never before..?
I’m… not certain!

Have I lived well?
Have I lived enough…right this moment…?
Do my parents know I’m thankful?
That they did really well;
Bringing me up!!??
Have I visited all the places I had dreamt of…
Or been crazy enough to be remembered and missed…?
I’m…. not certain!

All the friends who stood by me;
All those who are my wall..
Have I given them enough time
And returned their call…?
I’m not certain!

Every emotion that can exist;
Have I touched every corner of my heart..?
Do I know of all the things I hate..
And of anything… I would truly die without..?
I’m… not certain!

Should my life be a journey..
Or should every day be a celebration of reaching a destination;
Of being alive.
Being able to see the sun.
Having the choice of correcting my mistakes?
Of having the opportunity to do something brilliant and new..?
I’m… not certain!

I’m taking a deep breath now.
I’m gonna savor each moment now.
I want days full of memories now.
Give no thought before expression now.
Let the heart rule my mind.
Cause if life and death are uncertain
Then; I’d like to make my life more wholesome..
Of that…. I’m certain now!!

  5. Good, in a materialistic sort of a way, though life goes beyond the then and now, have a thought.
    Not that I am a poet myself or think like one, just a personal opinion, may be.
    Suggets you go over and beyond.
