Life follows you
No matter how far
You go

Life will tip toe
Behind you
If you venture to the
Deepest ocean or
A mountain painted with clouds

Life has no limits

Life has no fear or doubt

Life is life and life only

Life will travel in your
Most secret diary notes
Your darkest secrets
Your highest joys

Life sleeps beside you
As you cry in bed
With a loneliness that
Gnaws at your guts
Making your teeth chatter

Life is not bound by
Rusted iron shackles
Life has no death sentence
Life is free and
Enslaved and always wanting
More and more like
We are

Life follows you
No matter how fast
You may run from it

Life watches with two
Yellow beating eyes
Watches from inside your
Bedroom closet filled with
Dirty underwear

From underneath the bed
Life watches with a smile and
A hollow frown

We view our one life as

Life watches

All

Of

Ours
