Natures call struck

In the cold abyss, 
we beseech that we 
may not wither in and 
from our purchase. 

Even though we do not 
expedite ourselves and 
flow in life's narrow progression. 
There's no certainty to existence.

just when you come out of that 
penurious life, residing up to the 
dreams, unnatural nature whispers 
your end in an ending echo, 

leaving those we cherish in 
despair and hurt of a loss. 
It makes me wonder, 
why then Do we even try? 

When a creative dies, 
some colours of nature fade. 
Live on Wild!

When one dies another is born replacing the beauty:) Deep write, Tonye. We keep trying because we have an endless supply of love. What we give, we receive:) Merry Christmas, young lady:)
