Just Live

Why are we put through this torture? 
We are all just backed-up in a corner,
Living through the pain and suffering. 
But we all know what life will bring us.
One day, any day,
We will lay in our coffins,
Just rotting away, 
In a place under the earth.
No body will care that we are gone, 
Well not for too long anyway.
But when life gives us death,
We repay death with life.
A new child is born, 
A new corpse to throw away one day,
To give a new life once more.
It’s basically the law of this cycle,
Called life.

So strife for the greatest things. 
Spread your wings and achieve greatness.
Your brightness will shine forever, 
And one day on another one,
And then another one,
And another one,
The cycle will go on.
It will give life death and death life,
Something we all strife for together.

It’s ok to be afraid.
I was too in this stressful game.
Don’t be ashamed. 
I’m here for you,
To see it through.
With life inside you,
And death beside you,
Just live.
