What We Live

Folder: 
My Thoughts

People they come and then they go

Living lives on lies and boasts

Never knowing which way to go

Wishful wants for a solid soul

Just someone to love or someone to hold

Who they are they not yet know



Stages of life were here then went

Conceived in lies while truth's but a hint

Never knowing which path to take

Being young then growing old

Life's not fair, and fair's not sold

Who they are they not yet know



Chapters are there while the book remains blank

We live our lives bottled and fake

Never knowing which gap to fill

And although the pages turn there are no words

We look back now and where did life go

Who they are they not yet know



Love it comes and never really leaves

It's all we're taught and all we need

Never knowing to which person to give

Out bodies and souls, sealed by a kiss

Today is new but the past don't forget, cause

Who we are is what we live

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is about finding your purpose in a sometimes pointless life. It's about your decisions and how they influence not only yourself, but others as well. ("Practice what you preach.")
