Haven’t we all waned <br />Milked our mother and soothe starve <br /> <br />Haven’t we all witnessed the sun drift away <br />And usher in the moon <br />What men, but <br />Oscillatory fate <br /> <br />Haven’t we all with baby steps passed through hilly yesterday to this age <br /> <br />Haven’t we all landed in the port of happiness <br />and for once smelt heaven, because end is the <br /> beginning of our journey <br /> <br />Haven’t we all <br />In the voyage of sleep <br />On the wing of the world roved in heaven <br /> <br />Haven’t we all been lured by worldly vamps <br />slipped into the vault of sadness, shrouded by <br />pain and hope cob-webbed, then come calming <br /> words and patience, and <br />Our evaporated hope ventilated <br /> <br />Haven’t we all got stainless heart, and then was <br />rusted by illusive diamond because we disco in discomfort <br />Haven’t we all.<br /><br />Abdullah Musa<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/haven-t-we-all/
