 Penniluck's legacy

Are We Real


Are We Real

We lose so much in life
We suffer such pain
And convince ourselves
It`s a shower of rain
Which will disappear
As time goes by
So we should never ask
The why,
Why do they die,
Those that we love.
Is there somewhere up above
They live on still
Without a body
Is there a soul that takes no space,
Is that the human race.
Or are we all just full of shit
Cannot face the truth of it
That we do not exist in time
That when we`re gone
Yes yours and mine
There is no other place
We live or love or give and take
Is it all a big mistake
Or are we really made of soul
Can`t see it but it makes us whole
I must believe or life is nothing
But dross and emptiness
I guess we have to wait and see
You and me
But by then it will be too late
We`ll be at the gate of naught,
or Heaven
When all is done
We may join as one
I want to believe
And I can conceive
That we are real
That we will feel the hand
Of those long gone
Holding ours as we carry on.
