From Life Till Death

The day we are born we feel every emotion

As we grow old so does devotion

Slowly time drains us all

Every one grows, then everyone falls

When we were young, we were promised so much

As we grow we learn and copy what we see

Not all of us are shown how to deal with emotions 

Not everyone was offered devotion

And not everyone is given a choice to live nor die

Where do we go when we cease to breathe 

The question is hard though the answer is endless

Memories are given, a gift from the heaven

Not everything is easy to give a response

The emotions we are given are simultaneous

But unlike memories, the odds are endless

And one the day we all die

Makes our loved ones all wonder why

Death is just a side effect of life

Though the body is cold and stiff

They had felt everything, in a way they understood

Original voice inside ones head

All the same feeling, from life, until they finally found rest in their underground bed
