Oh, Life. How do you do the things you do?
How do you make everything feel all right? How do you make everything ok?
How can you turn happiness to sadness in an instant? How do you do it?
I wish I understood your ways, Life. I wish I knew how you can do these things.
One day, I know I will. But right now, you’re still a mystery to me.
I can’t wait for the day I realize everything I’ve ever questioned, to see if it was right or wrong.
I can’t wait for the day I feel completely at peace with my mind and soul.
I know that when that day comes, it will be absolutely wonderful.
But I need your help, Life. You need to help me figure some things out.
Please stand by my side in my times of need. Please lend me your shoulder when I’m sad.
Please lend me your arms for a hug when I’m happy. Embrace me with what you have to give to me.
Mislead me only if you’ll help me find my way to the right path again. Don’t leave me hanging.
And if you do, help me to help myself back up again. Is this reasonable for you, Life?
Please let me know as soon as possible. I’d love your feedback. It would mean the world to me.
You know I love you, Life. You know I care. I always have and I always will.
Let me know that you feel the same as I do, Life. My door is open to you, just give it a knock.
