The Book of Life

They say this is Life
When love puts us aside
Until we learn
To move ahead with Time
And wear a smile
Pretending to appear as if
Nothing had ever gone wrong

Maybe it is a reflection of being humble
Maybe it is the survival of perseverance
Maybe it is the silent killer within us
Killing us every single day
As we live to courageously battle
Until we can strive no more

They say this is Life
When loved ones
Either leave us
Or learn to live better without us
It is a pity they never understood
The unseen and the unspoken sentiments
But had they known the truth
They would have never left
Never gone

They say this is Life
When Truth really hurts
Yet does not kill
Maybe it makes us stronger
Maybe it does really kill

They say this is Life
If you realize you have been fooled
By the tricks and trials of this world
When you get what you never wanted
And when you hide
From what you could never forget

They say this is Life
When you are at the end of your Era
And you start reminiscing
All the pages and chapters
That you survived through

Now the Angel has finally arrived
To do the honours and close
The Book of Life...
