A Poem for Life

What does it mean

To live?

Does it simply mean

To breathe air?

Does it mean

To survive

To adulthood?

Does it mean

To have adventures?

Does it mean

To do something

Dangerous

And not die?

Or does it mean

Something more?

Is it something

Valuable,

Something you hold

Close to your heart?

Or is it something

That can just be

Thrown away

And forgotten?

I believe

That life means

To experience.

I have experienced

Pain and Pleasure,

Sadness and Joy,

Cold and Warmth,

Hate and Love.

I have lived.
