We Are Born To Die
We know death
is coming
after our
first breath.
We know not
when or why
just it will come.
Always love
for they may not
know what love
is. Marry once
or twenty times
seeking happiness
for you are
marriable. Have
many children for
they too will die
in time. Keep hate
at bay
It may be
the words
that kill
you
