Life Without Life
If this is what life is.
I careless if upon me death should come.
Unimaginable,thou I imagine,
The unyielding thoughts of parents.
Miserable words proceed
Out of mouths supposed to bless
And unfathomable has my life become
Tossing and turning like the wind
Without direction.
Love they say is the greatest
Wherein can life be complete without it?
Love?love!
Never has life offered me one.
And though i strive for a life
I possess not,in time to come,
Boundlessly will my joy be
Only if tarry I should
Then with my strength would i cross
The seeming high bridge of life.
