Life

Life

The expression of my life is a flower that rain drops fall on but do not falter
All the power of the seas oceans but still my mind you cannot alter
The earth is full of crime and punishment but I can sleep and dream without bother
I can search my soul for all eternity then never find an answer
See my greatest friend die and buried in the ground and yet only life gave up on her
This hypocrisy is and always will be a world that is made of stone and salty water
We were given the chance of life but the animal inside us makes us differ
