Twists and turns. Highs and lows. Alive!
Here we go again
We sit in silence and ponder the meaning of it all
The waves that crash on the shores of our hearts
Only to retreat ever so swiftly back into the abyss. Back into the void
We wake and toil, only to sleep and wake and toil again
We love only to lose and perhaps love again
We wander aimlessly, bottle in hand and drink in our veins
We salute the starry night with some marshal sense of duty
We commend the young buds frolicking in the night
Thinking to ourselves, ‘I had that once’
Our self-destruction is contemplated daily, but continues nonetheless
We consider the aim of it all, but never decide for sure
Life is one hell of a dance with its twist and turns
With its highs and lows and dizzying moments
And yet… Life is life
It is green, it is whole, it is life
And we must live it. Pain and joy in all
We must love. We must lose. And we must learn to love again
Each time regretting the cycle. Yet somehow still loving it
And come the lonely hour of the lonely day
When we sit and wonder alone and slightly afraid
A grin will come to rest on our faces
For we will know we are alive!
