Wondering Why

As I gaze at the sky so vast, I think of life and its contrast. The birds in their freedom fly, While I feel chained, asking why. The clouds above, ever-changing, Show that life is always rearranging. But still I stand here in this place, Wondering why life's such a race. Is it worth it, to run and strive, Only to learn we cannot strive alive? Oh, life is a mystery so grand, A puzzle we cannot understand. We laugh, we cry, we live, we die, But still, we can't help but wonder why. As the stars twinkle from afar, I realize life is but a fleeting star. But amidst the chaos and the strife, Perhaps true meaning lies in living life.
