 Penniluck's legacy

The Human Question


Why are we born - why do we live
Why do we die.
Why do we think - why do we feel
Why do we cry.
Why do we sleep - why do we wake
Why do we dream.
Why do we love - why do we hate
What does in mean.
Why don`t we know - why do we question
Why such a need.
Why does it matter - why do we care
Why take any heed.

Because we are human
And each have a soul
We live all our lives
In search of a goal.

Is life eternal
That we must know
Is all for nothing
If so - why so.

The quest it is endless
The answer unknown
`Till death takes our bodies
We search on alone.
