Life Should Be Simple

Beauty's in the eye of the beholder
love is just something you give,
happiness is a personal pleasure
and life is just something you live.

All these things you are born with
to be used the best way you can,
all the complications in between
can only be caused by man.

Nature provides every species
with the needs for it's survival,
it even gave us the means
to produce each new arrival.

The animals use Mother Nature
and most will survive without doubt,
but if we consider they're in our way
we proceed to just wipe them out.

But it seems we're never satisfied
we have to be on the move,
like a virus destroying everything
and believing it's to improve.
