Desert of Lives

A desert of lives.
A maze of relationships.
We're just people trying to survive,
As our lives unzips.
Yet will there be a chance to thrive,
And follow that of mere lips? 
Or will we take initiative and drive,
As we begin our own trips? 
So that we can revive,
To be someone who isn't made from just scripts. 
Thus knowing how it truly is to be "alive," 
And form relationships. 
Within the desert of lives,
We can only continue to find different ways to survive.
