Why do we live at all?

[DarkPainInside]

OK, this first poem is a work in progress, and the second one is for Morbid...and really anyone else who wants it to apply to them! lol

 

 

Why do we live at all?

 

Pain seeps,

Blood drops,

Darkness creeps,

Hearts stop,

 

Children leave

Rebels run;

Mothers grieve

The moon follows the sun.

A boy in a gutter lies still.

Computers crash,

Humans kill,

Poison ivy leaves a rash,

Kids cry,

Bombs fall,

Youth die,

Why do we live at all?

 

*****************

Because you support me,

The days

When I feel it too,

You’re my guardian angel

And I’d be sad if you never knew;

The days I cut my self,

I days I cried,

The days I felt I had to run away,

And hide;

You are there,

Telling me you care.

You are too precious to loose,

The wrong path; please don’t choose

You’re the only one I feel who understands me

The only one who knows what its like not to be free.

i think you might find there are a lot more than you know, who know what it's like.

*hugs*

I agree with Ayshela! I know that there are people out there who know what its like although i do know that when you are like that you feel like you are the only one! Like both your poems hun well done!!

Joyfulness grows

Love can unite

Happiness flows

Hands hold you tight

 

Babies are born,

Sinners repent;

There comes a new morn',

After each sun is spent.

 

To help one another

We offer our care

For sister and brother

We’ll always be there

 

Here at the Pen we are always there for each other.

Hopefully, that is something that can be used as a reply to "Why do we live at all?" To be there for each other and to live according to our higher power (if you have one).
