The Journey of Life
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Edith Agbo
Other Poems by Edith Agbo


The journey of life


Just when it comes to an end
It begins with a fresh start
As the Heart comes down in relief
It goes up again in uncertainty
Stage to stage forms the journey
It's a mystery why every one is there
Life truly is a long journey
Jumping from stage to stage
Some fall off along the way
Thinking their present stage is final
Why conclude on the journey
Knowing you 've not arrived
It's bearable when others conclude
But unbearable when we give up
Life is a journey of stages
One hot stage doesn't make others hot
The end of a stage begins another
Forming a long journey we must make
Just as the day travels
Going through morning noon and night
Life is in continuous motion

It gets darker and darker till midnight
Yet still dark the calender changes
Yet so quiet Life pronouces a new day
Do not say nothing has changed
Darkness is not only the proof of the night
The new day begins with darkness
sleep when it is dark but observe time
Know when to wake up without seeing light
Move, move and don't ever stop
Finish the day and begin another one
It's a journey that moves in a circle
Every thing comes back again
Except for time that never returns
Cry only for the death of time
Laugh knowing there's still a chance
We walk knowing there's an end
Not knowing when we'll be through
It's healthy to keep believing we'll finish.
