Seasons of life

No one is better

By Kisama Riyo Published about a year ago 1 min read

We presented ourselves as angels to the world of passion

We rode the back of a bygone era

We carried our secrets as a provision for the future

We raced our days to leave an echo

The Creator planted in us the pearl of reason

Let us accept each other as people accept us

No one is better except through piety

Being kind to us is good news

Guidance is for Allah in what He chooses for His servant

Some of us wasted our lives

Some of us gave their effort and were named

Some of them are secrets to their Lord

We were blessed with well-being and some of us were cruel

Nostalgia is the embrace of everyone who spoke

No young man grows old in sleep

This world is for those who grieve over it and are miserable

And its beauty is for those who sacrifice

Self-love brings you nothing but sadness

If you fall, get up and don't forget

Life is an opportunity, a structure, and a meaning

We live it until we disappear on earth

So that our souls remain in memory

For people we are pleased with

Perhaps our hearts will be purified and they will have piety

I have always been interested in poetry and essay, especially rhyme style, so I decided to post my essay here and see if I have any talent in poetry or not.
