Does it Matter?




Why do we matter?
Why do we care?
For all the good it does to us
The end is not so fair.
We have all our needs and wants,
Our selfish feelings too
And after all the singing's done
We return to what we were.

It cannot be so wrong to want,
A better life and way.
To be a stronger better man
With a better stronger mind.
No one cares to help the poor
Of mind, or focus on the help
When needed, for those
Whose life is barely there.

A life that has no meaning
Is worse than being dead.
For living every day in hell,
Absorbed in misery and strife.
Concocting potions, to enable
Life to continue just one day,
In case the morning brings
The long awaited peace, that
Comes from breathing
One last and final breath.

Many try but few achieve the
Luxury of peace. To dwell
Amongst the living souls
And walk among the dead.
Condemned to die from when
We are born, we walk a lonely
Path, avoiding all the awkward
Steps that might be placed before
Our feet, to trip us on our way.

So we take the easy route
To end in misery, unless
We have the courage now,
To take a charge upon our
Life and pull it to the fore.
To make our life a better place,
Than ever it was, but is the
Spirit there, can it be relied
Upon to push us when we flag,
Or will we end in misery
Because we do not trust.

I have dreams and wishes
Too, abundant and so real
They will never all come true
Just one will have to make
The grade and make me smile
For once. A moment of pure
Pleasure and I will leave complete
