Life is the reason
we all have to die,
because it is life
on which our bodies rely.

Life is not loyal.
Life will betray you.
If your body fails,
then life will not save you.

You're not priority.
For you it won't fight.
Life is within you,
but it's just not a right!

Life is the essence
of all things that live.
In a blink could it leave you
and no care would it give.

"But, why is this so?",
you may want to ask.
Well, God gave you life,
and He gave you a task.

Hold on to dear life,
it is your assigned duty.
It is Life that gives
just everything beauty!

It's through your body
that life finds expression.
It may just be true,
that you're life's obsession!

A gift from our Maker
is what we've received.
The root of our being,
is how it's perceived.

I tell you all this
with one question in mind.
Why did God
give life to mankind?
