Life Goes On

 Life Goes On

The sun comes up, the sun goes down

The trees turn green, the trees turn brown

Life goes on

Civilizations come, civilizations go

Some, lost to history, we don’t even know

Life goes on

People are born, people die

Both events make us cry

Life goes on

Where life comes from, where life goes

Until we’re there, we don’t really know

Life goes on

So is this life just “c’est la guerre?”

It can’t be helped, so why should we care?

Life goes on

Or is there a reason why we’re here?

To find it out, and, to it, adhere?

Life goes on

And is that reason being truly here,

In each moment, holding life dear?

Life goes on

Doesn’t “truly here” mean going past the fear,

Living with heart, bringing people near?

Life goes on

Follow the breath to your heart of hearts

That will be your true life’s start

Life goes on

Air goes in, air goes out

For this, no need to think about

Life goes on

In the river of breath, life’s ebb and flow,

Answers come clear, you will know

Life goes on
