Love like an ice cream,
Melts under the sun,
And flows into the river;
Never to return again.

Floored by love,
Too late to love.
It doesn't rain all day;
Lest it turns a malady.

A toast to long life;
A farewell to love;
Let the dead rest,
And life goes on.

YOU ARE NOT MY FRIEND

You're not my friend
If you hide the truth from me,
And watch me enmeshed by pride.

You're not my friend
If you feed me with lies,
And keep me off the right path.

You're not my friend
If you bawl when I succeed,
And throw a party when I flop.

You're not my friend
If you love to see me blub,
And loathe to make me beam.

You're not my friend
If you only speak love,
And fail to portray your words.

To encourage the purpose of true friendship

#love

I CAN SEE THE ROPE

Life
gives the best
But
Just for a while

Life
A fairy tale
Sweet
But has an end

Life
Like the sun
Shines
But sets at dusk

Life
Like the flowers
Flourish
Just in its season

Life
Allow me to go
Die
Without a goal

Life
I began with cries
Behold
It wants to end in pains

Life
give me mine
Please
Let me be fine

Life
I can see the rope
But
I choose to live

This poem is to give hope to those that are at the stage of giving up and commiting suicide.
