In everybody’s head there seems
To be a little voice
That asks each and everyone. What is life deemed to be?
It has a hold you can’t deny
Like a whistle in the wind
And every day, in every way the answer seems a dream
What is life? Am I real? Why do I have these thoughts?
I have heard people say that eyes are windows of the soul
But what’s a soul? How can I know? Can you lose yourself in a soul?
People can view their life by their self-esteem
But if everyone saw life by their own self-esteem, would life be worth it?
But through all these questions and some still unanswered,
I know my life is a wonderful gift from God
And no matter how unanswered it is…
How crazy it is…
It’s beautiful
