ALL THIS LIFE WE RAN - Poem

Hello there!

In this blog entry I would like to share a poem I wrote today called ALL THIS LIFE WE RAN.

It is about the way of living in which it seems as though we are running,
living with haste, going through the motions, and to reflect upon it.

I hope you enjoy.

Thank you for your time and attention,
Nil

​All this life we ran
Ran from what, I ask?


Death? What is night to day?
Pain? How would we know calm?
Sorrow? How would we know joy?


All this life we ran
Ran from what, I ask?


What better destination to life
than here and now?
Is this not enough?


Do the birds not cheer us on loud enough?
Does night turn to day not fast enough?
Or is mind tricking us into absence conceiving?


All this life we ran
Ran from what?
Towards what?


What silly games are we playing?
