Life That Is
Every precious moment that we live
Is gone in a second
Every emotion that we feel
Should never be forgotten
We live so fast,
To die so young
Not stopping to listen
To the bird's morning song
Everyday we trod on by
Dwelling over our own sad cries
Not realising what we miss
The breeze in the air, a gentle kiss
To our family and friends
The ones who are with us 'til the end
Through ups and downs and all between
What we never say, can always be seen.
Our love for our close ones never end
Through spirit, my whole heart I will send
Though I never say but always feel
I love them all beyond what is real.
For my baby that I love
Who came to me from above
To bring me out of my dark storm
Into sunlit gardens at my dawn.
A simple breath, I appreciate
The chance to live and see the days
What is given to me, precious and dear
I try to take without no fear.
Our being is never forever,
Our lives begin in a vulnerable child,
So we make haste to make it fuller
But should not forget all the while;
Our life is not a goal
But a road for our souls
We ride this road and learn
To laugh and cry, to ravage, to burn.
A search for happiness is futile
When a balance is much more worthwhile
The extent of our emotions show
The inside we try to know
We feel joy and also pain
From both, so much can be gained
So sob when you cry, laugh when you smile
Our feelings and life only last for a while.

I started reading all of the postings on 4 November 2006, and this is (maybe fittingly) the last piece that I read. This is really really nice. I agree with your other brother (although his post doesn't make much sense:)) - you do have a talent when it comes to writing that I think you should pursue further.
Okay, I'm going to go and read everything again.
Thank you for the words of encouragement :) Really means a lot to me. When more comes to me, I'll put it up. The shitty thing is that it's mostly when I go through pain that the writing comes to me. But I'm trying to change that, as you can see with Blissful Bath now.
