Life is a beautiful lie or a truth?
Why the race for beauty is on?
Beauty is skin-deep or uncouth?
Is all this a divine ploy to con?
Do you feel life is a beautiful lie?
At times, nothing seems real or right?
Do you too ask- 'how, what, when, why'?
Do life's challenges give you a fright?
Or do you believe life is true?
And all this is reality cent percent?
Is life not a trick or illusion for you?
Life's paths are straight & not bent?
What about death that's sure to come?
Is death more painful & truer than life is?
Isn't death the reality all have to welcome?
A beautiful lie's bliss or a painful truth's kiss?
Do you agree that life is a beautiful lie and death is a painful truth?

I'm neither here, nor there. I sometimes feel it is all a beautiful lie, other times it all feels so just. :)

True Shalzzzz. Even I sometimes wonder & stare... feeling neither here, nor there:)
DeleteSometimes, I think that life is the beautiful lie and, other times, I think that it is the best reality that could be. Not a lie at all. Other times, life becomes a nightmare. I never know which side of life I will see each day, so it is always exciting and adventurour.
ReplyDeleteSo true, Alice! Totally agree.
DeleteWe all are journeying in this life's adventure & encountering lies & realities.
Life is everything. A lie, truth, tragedy, nightmare, miracle. Basically, I feel life is a continuous test of our strengths. But death, I feel, is the absolute truth. There is no "may be" in case of death.
ReplyDeleteLoved the poem. :)
Agree with you, Dipanwita.
DeleteLife is all this & more! Death is for sure.
Thanks :)
I am always torn in between. Life means different things depending on the situations. Beautiful poem :)

Lets love life, live it full; let's play on life's wavy beach.

Death is more real than anything else, I'd say.
