The Fate of Life

Why do we have sorrow, sadness, grief or pain? Is it so we can lead to a better day? From it, what do we really gain? Would it be better to keep it all at bay? Do we deserve this, or is it just by fate? Lies, just to make you feel better Man, feels like you were only bait. Unless, you do it right; to the letter No one is perfect, you have to see Everyone’s flaws, aren’t ever the same Yet we seem to have a key For what other reason would we have a name For what other reason would we be I am not perfect, you must realize Yet pain, is not what we want or need People have even considered suicide Yet we still manage to make it another day With those by you to stand tall and strong Just by the words of which you say We shall unite in a spacious throng And come out stronger than ever Brothers and Sisters holding each other For these are the bonds that we do not sever The lives for which are no other Unless we have each other to hold Someone to hold in times of need To provide the heat in the cold Now these are the righteous deeds For if not my love, then what by? Be lost in the sorrow of hate and fears Forever alone, until the day we die Unless one comes to wipe our tears One will always be needed, no matter what Even when you think that all is lost No need for the knife that cuts For this is the only one true cost That you may finally be removed from remorse For all you need is love, the one true source.
