Why do we live?
To be badgered and blamed?
Why do we live?
To be constantly shamed?
Tell me.
Why do we live?
Why do we love?
To be broken in twain?
Why do we love?
For our hearts to be slain?
Tell me.
Why do we love?
Why go on?
With this curse we call life?
Why go on?
To be poisoned with strife?
Tell me.
Why go on?

Devin, we go on cuz life is a gift, it is precious.
True happiness comes when we give to others & not always want to get.
Keep writing! I enjoyed the read🙏🏾💞😉
I go on because that is the only option that doesn't hurt those closest to me. I hope you can find a better reason for your existence. In the meantime, I enjoyed your writing.
I go on. I will until I can ´ t no more. I go on to not hurt others.I go on to live a happy life. I love your writing. Keep it up.
To live on is an opportunity to make the best of what you have or want to have.🤔
