Existence
Is an adage.
It is true, nothing is new
Only impersonation
Doing it in duplicate
A different equation
Existence is an adage
Referred to as life
Being is experiencing
Happiness and strife
What takes place in the race
Or who should come to pass
Is it possibly an illusion
How long does life last
Can I clearly elucidate
Or know the reason why
I live to love and laugh out loud
Then break down and cry
While I prevail I will sail
And billow with the breeze
I’ll be part of the cosmos
All without guarantees
Trips and falls are trials
Take place and transpire
Seeking sanctity in love
Earth water wind and fire
If I knew the number
Or held the master plan
Would it make a difference
To the mystery of man
