what is a life of bickering...
so short-lived at the most?
shall not it be filled with silly puns
- a gracious, loving host?
shall not we look upon mistakes
as things that are of the past?
for what is a life not filled with joy?
when this life will never last...
shall we happen upon a joyous celebration
- must we turn it into tears?
we must change the way our soul divides?
must we learn to face created fears?
shall we walk among troubled waters
that man-made will remain?
shall we create our happiness
and let lingering remorse weigh down our being?
what of us shall become when we're gone
shall we be ghosts, forgotten with time?
I beg of you, what is a life of bickering?
when we only live one time...?
