Because I live, I cannot alter the wind, but I can adjust my sails to ensure that I land safely all the time. By Poet
Because I live among humans and not angels
I cherish affection in all aspects of my life
We shall remain in love as long as we are alive
In our world, beauty is becoming scarcer
Moreover, we act as if nothing is significant
Because I live, delight stems solely from love
As social beings, that's just how we behave
And we are here to express and bestow passion
Recover cheerfully when life knocks you down
Our lifestyle is absurd, but we are not insane
Love, sympathy, and respect are what fuel us
Wealth is essential, but it's not everything
Realize that life unfolds as you're scheming
Either you grasp the day or it steers you
Oh, the golden radiance of the past is gone!
Sacred stones are now present everywhere
Our house is a beacon in the pitch-black night
Our mother's voice is audible in the shadows
Oh, poor kids, once worth their weight in gold
They are now regarded as pottery made of clay!
They are living oblivious to the lives they've changed
People gave other people purpose and brightness
Because I am yet alive, leaps are being made
Twists and connections abound throughout
Since our lives are connected, I get hollered at
My influence has been recognized frequently
I am, however, largely focused on my own life.
