What Is the Meaning of Life
The Meaning of Life
Falling from sky
Heading for earth
No, parachute
That’s Birth!
What is then the meaning of life?
To hit the ground destined
Escape none
Fear great
Death on!
What is then the meaning of life?
The falling long
The falling short
No difference makes
That’s the shock!
What is then the meaning of life?
Should I follow
Gravity’s call
Or enjoy the ride
The splendor of all?
Is that perhaps the meaning of life?
As a way out
Of this dilemma, I seek,
My heart cries loud:
Let’s take the risk!
That could be the meaning of life.
Countless dreams then I make
And myriad goals at once I set
It is so fun I shout,
That I forget all the rest
That sounds to be the meaning of life!
The purpose that I have found
Is withholding now the chute
No way to hit then the ground
Cause of this life-saving parachute!
That is after all the meaning of life!
