The Other Side

 The Other Side

Lingering to a life so fragile

Hoping to serve some purpose

Fighting for a just course

Moving forward despite how dry the plains appear

Drinking without choice whatever life offer

Dreaming of tomorrow's bright opportunity

Waiting silently for a better reality

Anticipating the rewards that will come on the other side

Who knows, It may be far better than we thought

Who knows, we may not need wings fly

Who knows, the glory of it's splendor

Who knows, we may all easily get there

Who knows, if that will be our final destination

Who knows, if we will see familiar places and faces

As pretty as it seem, we still can't tell 

A part of us believe and Still dread to go to The Other Side.

Hello Cleo...

Can this life be all there is?

I am looking forward to finding out about God's house that has many mansions...

If it wasn't so...

He would have told us...

I am not in a hurry...

But, I wouldn't mind seeing it...

When God says He has a place for us...

It let's me know that we're here and we have a purpose for this life...

Great write and Great questions...

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs and Smiles!

Hello Cleo…

Great questions turned into a poem, on the other side can be the success or failure, on the other side of existence you can inhabit the all or nothing, sadness or absolute happiness. There must not be afraid to cross to the other side, they have before us millions of people crossed it, there is the other side is sure that someone will be waiting for us.

A greeting to all.

Hi Lucas, thanks a lot. it can either be good or bad, I guess that's another reason we dread it a times. Warm regards. Cheers.

Hey Cleo…

When you jump to the other side with a noble heart and with the rejuvenated soul there is no fear of the unknown that can live on the other side of life, even not having anything on the other side you can find peace, faith never is useless when it jumps into the abyss with a heart full of hate and the soul on the ira.

The poem was delighted by the masterful composition both its content.

A greeting.

Hi Cleo,

This piece is filled with so many questions that we all ask at one time or another of God. One day we will get to know those answers, but only when He knows that we are ready to receive them. When we are ready to understand those answers we will get them. Well done for a well written and very well thought through piece that really showcases your talent sweetie.

God bless

Hugs
