What is a heart

if it cannot beat?

What is a soul

if it cannot sing?

What is life

without love?



How will one write a song,

without a melody to go along?

And how will we feel the beat,

without a meaning in between?



What is a caged bird,

if it can't one day fly away?

What are words,

we can never find a way to say?



How will we win a war

with the need to destroy?

How will we find peace within

if hatred continues swim?



Questions of life

remain unanswered.

For the sole purpose

of living to find out.



Living, to learn how.
