Live

People are amazed,
As you walk by chin raised.
They ask how are you still sane,
After you've lost everything?

You turn to their staring eyes, 
Catching them by suprise;
And say simply, I live for my losses.
If we never lose, why would we want to win?

If it wasn't for death, whar would be the reason to live?
Live your life for those who die.
Brightly smile for those who cry.

Walk with your head held high for those who are low.
Go on each day as if there's no tomorrow.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
