Phases 1.0
A poem that reflects different phases of a person's life
You came here as a new-born
You played a lot and made things torn
Your baby toys and your car's horn
Then you grew up to your teen-age
You got anger quick and began to rage
All the parents care, You declared a cage
Married life that you'd always wanted
Screwed up when your kids shouted
Then you realised what you had planted
You regretted a lot and began to shout
You missed your parents that seemed you loud
Sadly they were gone and that was all about

--- A person only gets to know others pain when he suffers himself ---
Thank you a lot! It means everything to me <3

I really enjoyed your poem! You nailed the ups and downs of growing up and parenting. It's relatable and has a nice flow, making readers reflect on their own journeys. Thanks for sharing such an impactful piece!
Almost too much truth... 🫢 Excellent work!
Wow, this poem really captures the ups and downs of life! It beautifully describes the journey from childhood to adulthood, with all its innocence and challenges. The imagery of torn toys and the metaphor of a "cage" really hit home and convey those feelings of frustration and being stuck. The poem also does a great job of expressing the emotions of missing our parents and understanding the consequences of our actions. And that closing note really drives home the importance of empathy and learning from our struggles. This piece really makes you think about life and the lessons we learn along the way. Great job!
