Life What Is

LIFE: WHAT IS? Full of pain With never any gain This life seems to be one big willful game Tumbling headlong through this maze of chance Our paths are littered with memories We seldom know Where we are going Nor the reason for living Life can be brutal It can swallow you whole A vexatious burden for some Who know not how to live A joy for those who understand That life is for living The prolonged day to day existence That life can seem to be Brings both misery or hope Depending on how empty or full Your tea cup is Life is to be lived The journey to death Is varied No ideal way exists That tells the truth Of our existence Live life to the fullest Accept what you have Change what you can Hopefully you will Figure out your life plan
