This life born,
For...
Whatever claim
may be made.
Upon the being,
that i am.
Accident ,
or reason.
It doesn't matter.
The why of
how i got here.
Tis not important.
However this life,
Is what it is,
easy, hard, unbearable,
it doesn't matter.
This is my life,
I live and breathe.
Not so ,unlike yours.
Yet somehow,
through the eras.
We've said to each.
You do not know,
my life is harder.
However, this isn't so.
This life,
Is all i have.
Yes, I've stamped
myself ,on the
human map.
In this life.
My bloodline,
will continue flowing.
But for me,
just myself.
My life,
Is all i have.
Know matter the mistakes.
Know matter the right choices.
I'm glad i awake ,
to the sunshine and the rain.
Even through ,
peace and war as well.
This life,
I'm grateful for.
and this life is all I have.

“The most important things in life”
To love and share, to honor and care
To seek and find, to put
Another day has come my way as I crawl out of bed.
To face the world, society and work for little bread.
All these days
I am never quite sure where this life is leading me,
whether I am in control.
Maybe there is such a thing as fate,
or maybe
