Love In Life

Love in Life

Open your eyes and take in a breath
This is what life is really about
Not that lie you see on a TV screen
This is the way things should be
A struggle to be the best you can
A course you must complete in time

A life that is relaxed and tamed
If not a life at all, in my eyes
Or a life where love is simple
Love is something you must obtain
And to obtain, you must understand
All about it is a really mystery

But life should have its vacations
Times you can relax and refresh some
Let your mind be at ease without worry
Let someone be there to guide you
Someone you trust and makes you smile
Let someone as pure as this be your life
