Life

A.H. Browning



Life is often born of love
Conceived with blood and pain

And in the rain of days that follow
Some days bright
Some days sorrow

There lives within my bones
A want for idyllic, untroubled homes
And even in my darkest night

My heart will stubbornly hold on tight
To life

  • Comment from author about the poem: I didn’t choose to be born, but here I am. Life wants to live and sometimes surprisingly so in the darkest hours. My heart has always sought to keep on beating in times of both joy and pain. The YouTube video is a song by Switchfoot. Lyrics are as follows: Welcome to the planet, Welcome to existence, Everyone's here, Everyone's here, Everybody's watching you now, Everybody waits for you now, What happens next? What happens next? I dare you to move, I dare you to move, I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor, I dare you to move, I dare you to move, Like today never happened, Today never happened before. Welcome to the fallout, Welcome to resistance, The tension is here, The tension is here, Between who you are and who you could be, Between how it is and how it should be, I dare you to move, I dare you to move, I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor, I dare you to move, I dare you to move, Like today never happened, Today never happened. Maybe redemption has stories to tell, Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell, Where can you run to escape from yourself? Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go? Salvation is here. I dare you to move, I dare you to move, I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor, I dare you to move, I dare you to move Like today never happened, Today never happened, Today never happened, Today never happened before.
