The Meaning of Life.
The Meaning of Life.
What is the meaning of life?
Is it to overcome all the pain and the strife?
Is it happiness and it’s pursuit?
Is it the bearing of fruit?
From the bitter tree
Issued to me
At my conception?
Or is that a false perception?
Is it to triumph over our fears?
Or gaining the acceptance of our peers?
Is it having fame or notoriety?
Or being a contributing member of society?
Is it the acquisition of wealth?
Or the knowledge of self?
Or, is it, simply, LOVE?
To be loved?
To see love?
To have loved?
Is that Love?
To show love?
To know love?
To choose love?
To lose love?
To feel pain?
That REAL pain.
That make you so numb pain.
That why was I so dumb pain.
That you can’t run from pain.
To hate love.
To hide love.
To never, provide love.
To take time to heal
To no longer be bereft
To remove all the scabs
From the scars that love left.
To open your heart
To love in repetition
And hope that the pain
Has gone into remission.
To find that no matter the love that you’ve found
That the pain that you’ve felt is the one common ground.
Yet continue to go through the pain and the strife
In search of TRUE LOVE, that is The Meaning of Life!
