Life

Life is... but a dream
Life is a small cry in the dark
Life is poor
Life is rich
Life is an abundance of exaggerating joy
Life is a hard stab in the heart
Life is pleasant laughter
Life is disease and never ending problems
Life is a painful agony
Life is an endeavor
Life is a love story
Life is a cure
Life is a judgement of war
Life is peace
Life is beautiful
Life is ugly
Life is disgusting
Life is breathtaking
But...life can end
