What Is Life

Good morning my dearest students,
toady's lesson will be love

excuse me teacher what about our space geometry ?
Yes, teacher don't we have that major project to discuss first?

teacher! teacher, are you okay?

Yes, my dearest very fine i am. 
From an early age we've been taught,
a whole lot of things. 
From how to tie our shoes to how to solve equations.
Many things, 
all important things.

But what they don't teach is how to love,
how to behave when in love, 
how to be loved and love others in return.

Such things, such little things are so great,
because we live for love one way or the other;
we live for a smile.
Happy are we when our beloved smiles, too.

These are the things that are beautiful,
truly beautiful.
But! There is more to it; you see,
no one is perfect and perfect is none, 
yet we all do our very best.

mistake we are designed to do 
and mistakes are the best teachers 
from mistakes we learn 

ultimately you make enough mistakes not to repeat it 
and sometimes once is just enough 

but my dearest you see
no one dare teaches us about how to behave during errors and mistake 
because there is no right way 

ashamed we feel 
bury us in a hole now 
may the earth crack open and swallow us
disappeared we all want to be 

at such moment time is irrelevant 
everything stops 
and that moment repeats itself 
over and over again 
we are stuck in that loop 

have we lost our minds you may wonder
no excuses you are an adult 
you are not crazy just human  

in a few years you will laugh it off 
that's when you know 
the best of us do make mistakes 

but that shouldn't never stop you from loving 
love with all you heart 
that's what makes us humane
love with all your heart

because what is life without love?
whenever you fall down or make a mistake 
do remember to apologize and be sincere 
what are we if we don't have love?

intelligence doesn't separate us from the primitive beings 
love does

all the greatest things in history were done in the name of love?
what will you do for love?

that is all for today 
class dismissed
