"Life Like Life is a cup, filled with joy and sorrow, A mix of sweet and bitter, in every tomorrow. We sip and savor, the flavors of our days, And bitterness creeps in, like a thief in the night's gaze. It steals our peace, and leaves a bitter taste, A resentment that lingers, like a lingering haze. But even in bitterness, there's a lesson to learn, A chance to grow stronger, like a tree that yearns. For life is a journey, with ups and downs we go, And bitterness is a test, that makes our hearts glow. It refines our spirit, like silver in the fire, And makes us wiser, with a heart that's more desire. So let us embrace, the bitterness of life, And find the sweetness hidden, like a ripe fruit in strife. For in its depths, we'll discover, a strength we never knew, And a heart that's more resilient, like a flower that blooms anew. ©twisha ray "
