What's the Point?
What’s the point
in living
When death awaits
What’s the point
in breathing
When you can not
feel the
swelling of your
lungs
What’s the point
in love
When you heart
only aches
What’s the point
of being in a
state of
awareness
When you are not
really alive
What’s the point
in doing your
best
When it is
rarely
acknowledged
What’s the point
in making all
happy
When you are sad
What’s the point
in smiling
When your heart
bleeds
And that colgate
smile
never touches
your eyes
What’s the point
in anything?
