*IT IS CALLED LIFE*
Why the war?
When we know the tragedies of battles are unending
Why not war?
When the chains of slavery are clanging
Why are we born
When we are certain to die
Why love
When we can't tell who the true friends are
Why smile at all
When we know our tears will never dry
A kola for the wise
A gamble for the youth
It is called life
A mystery for the pundit
A trial for the boys
It is called life
Seen but never known
Heard but never understood
It is called life
