Life: Modern Shakespeare


 

Life

Live then die, is that what being human is?

Love, failure, and belonging. 

Three things we may need to survive in this

World, but striving to contain these moments aren’t always calming.

Love is like an eternal flame,

Can’t put it out once its lit.

And failure has no one to blame,

But to belong is what everyone wants, isn’t it?

Humans can’t have just one. 

The importance of having all three aspects is crucial,

We all must partake then be done.

Which is difficult for some and unusual.

Just live life with love

And with the aspects that are above.
