What is it

What drives us forward?
The need to be?
The need to care?
The need to see?

What makes us human?
The ability to be kind?
The ability to think?
The ability to show compassion?
The ability to cry?

What is this life?
The nature to grow?
The nature to love?
The nature to destroy?
The nature to kill?
