Categories Literature > Poetry > Philosophical > Fixed


The world's darker than the inside of your eyelids on a midnight eclipse,
The world's dangerous to explore so my question exactly is this:
Are you willing to play life to it's fullest potential and take the risk?
Live wasting or die trying to find an answer to life's purpose, which is:

Live is a rhetorical question, question upon question, no answer found,
Some questions cannot be answered, lest we forget the few that they astound,
Live free, with chance and motivation aloft, boundaries shall not be around,
Remember: Life is short, before you know, you'll be forgotten in the ground...

The first line of this poem rang in my head around 5:00 a.m. on Friday, July 29, 2005. It took me 30 minutes to complete this poem, but, I think it's worth it, it always is.

"19" has a nice ring to it, I like this poem, and I hope you will too! :XD:

* * Note: A prize shall be awarded to anyone that can correctly guess why this poem is called "19." * *
(Don't worry take your time and observe the poem, it's easy. :XD: )
Someone ought to get it.... Hopefully... ^^;

Though you may not express your feelings, you do project them.
I feel it, every time...
That is empathy...
