Love of Life Does Matter

My personal view on life.

As I experienced all the pain
I hid it within my art
Not willing to trust anyone
It was fed to a fire

Ignored my pain by living life
Turning my back upon my heart
Not willing to trust anyone
My wound festered and grew

Going about my days without desire
No love returned for my own
Not willing to trust anyone
I finally faced it letting go

Life through truth hidden with lies
Giving your life in silence away
Not willing to trust anyone
I now embrace facing my art

Held back by all my fears
Giving hope to others through art
Not willing to trust anyone
A puppet caught in a play

(back to the top, repeat)

Getting up after every single fall
Cutting the strings and walking away
I’d rather lead than follow anyone
For love of life does matter
