Analysis of LIFE
Life is for the living,
So now I am leaving,
This vicious circle of life,
A life without meaning.
Mystery lying in our soul living,
A lie without the soul living,
For a heart that knows no love,
Then a life should not live.
A mother's nature to nurture,
Is her living kind of nature,
To birth life in nature,
Living nature to nurture.
A life without meaning,
Is the human nature of living,
A life that live,
Is a live life alive.
