In Life

In explaining life, we contradict.
So fragile, can be gone in the blink of an eye,
So strong, fighting what may seem like a battle lost.
So simple, we breed, we grow old, we die,
So complex, relationships, emotions, we feel!
So joyful, we laugh, we love, we live,
So painful, we lose, we hate, we cry.
Are we in control? Choosing our own path?
Or are we not? Is our destiny planned?
