Neon and Dark
We ask ourselves,
What is life?
Every minute of every day and hour
We ask ourselves what is the purpose of life?
To live and to learn life lessons.
To learn to handle competition and conflict,
To learn that life is not just about anything that glistens.
Not to judge someone and nitpick
We all think that life has no meaning,
But if we search deep down,
For the meaning and stop clinging to a chair after a gruesome, bloody beating,
Some would find the things that glisten bright, and some would find the things that are dark and dull.
Life is not just about happiness,
But about the dark and depressing road we travel.
But in the end everyone is forgiven for everything, but mainly their braveness
For putting up with losing the ones we love and dealing with all the troubles.
Because after life there is nothing but death,
It's dark and depressing to think that one day we all may die,
But we all need to let our troubles free and live life and not waster our last breath
On the lies we all have lived. Life is nothing but one big lie.
A dark and neon lie, to teach us all one simple lesson.
That no matter how horrible and terrible someone may be,
They are just like us.
And on this Earth for one simple reason,
To live and to let go of all the trouble and issues with trust.
And just live to the fullest and take action.
Take life by the wrist and guide it to the bright neons instead of the depressing darks.
