A Neverending Paradise

[WhyIsLife56]

People say it's not black and white
But what if it was
What exactly is black and white
Is it like chocolate and tea
Or is it like pain and pleasure

They say friends come and go
Why do they you wonder
Do they use you
Or do they love you

Then one day
I think to myself
Why do I exist
Why am I here
Am I real
Or am I fake

Why am I me
Why in this world
Where people smile and laugh
And yet there are others
That beg for it all to end

What do you believe in
When you're alone
Is it just for show
Or do you really see the world that way

Have they been in your shoes
They say people become defensive
Until it happens to them
Why are you complaining
When life's supposed to be a gift right?

It is a gift. It just takes some doing to unwrap it.

The Pasture

By Robert Frost

I'm going out to clean the pasture spring;
I'll only stop to rake the leaves away
(And wait to watch the water clear, I may):
I sha'n't be gone long.—You come too.

I'm going out to fetch the little calf
That's standing by the mother. It's so young,
It totters when she licks it with her tongue.
I sha'n't be gone long.—You come too.
