My question is - What is life all about?
When I was young I thought life was a thrill
but time persists and with it growing doubt.
Decisions made, some good, some not, throughout
my destined fate, my fortune or freewill.
My question is - what is life? All about
me people pray and sing and sin and shout
some fight for freedom, some protest, some kill
time. I persist and with my growing doubt
advance my quest for what I am without.
Yet answers I’ve been given don’t fulfil
my question: Is what Is; Life’s all about
living; Work-hard play-hard; Check-in check-out;
and others say: we’re here to do God’s will.
But time persists. And with this growing doubt
increasing need fades in but won’t fade out.
I know there is a reason and yet still
my question is what? Is life all about
time persisting with my growing doubt?
