I
Why?
Gail Mitchell ©1982
What is the reason for life?
There’s no hope,
Only dreams
And wherever you go everything seems
Just the same.
From the moment of birth
To the second of death
You’re always alone.
For no matter how hard anyone of us tries
It’s impossible to fathom the unendable size
Of the meaning of life.
Yet through the chaos and tension life still goes on.
There seems no reason
Except maybe one?
The thought that somebody somewhere has found a song
That will light up the heart and bring peace.
