Once Again

​

Life and Death are equal
Only we long for what's
Closest to us

​

As a baby, so full of wonder
We want to experience this
New Life

​

And as we grow a little older
We realize there are some hardships
To overcome

​

A quarter through
We begin to question
Which is better

​

Life or Death
But we carry on
Being only so young

​

And then we are in the middle
Where we have regrets
And we have dreams

​

Almost done now
So much gone by
So much aching

​

Life, which seemed greater
Than the stars in the sky
And all the love in the world

​

Doesn't seem so great anymore
For there's a shadow of Death ahead
And he stands with his palms out

​

Those who are at the end
Who've lived Life
And are now tired

​

They see Death
As the new Life
And hope to be full of wonder

​

Once again
