Responding to the prompt, The Tragedy of Being Human, given by Manic Sylph Mona. Mona is an amazing poet. If you haven’t visited her blog, please do so you won’t regret
The tragedy of being human
are we are often drenched
in the sea of emotions,
chasing shadows,
embracing deceit
and still, carry the charm
to shed a tear
blaming it on this thing called life
