Why Am I Here?

I'm all alone in the world
The days just pass me by
Am I here for a reason?
Or am I here just to die?

Am I here to help someone?
Am I here to give birth?
Helping the world a different way
By adding more life to this Earth

I don't know where I'm heading
Or where I'm going to be
So I sit and wonder
Is there a purpose for me?

Will someone out there help me?
Will someone show me the way?
Because I'm getting more and more lost
Each and every day

I know that one day I'll die
It's something I do not fear
In the meantime I still ask
Why am I here?

    I have asked that question many times. I am still not sure of why I am here. Maybe it was to give birth to my son...he is going to college majoring in sacred music..he wants to be in music ministry. Maybe I am here for my daughter..she wants to play in the WNBA...plus she pitches a great softball.
    NO matter what we are here for, we are never alone. YOu have written a wonderful piece of poetry.

    I used to ask that question too. It used to make me sad not knowing why I was here, but now I know for certain and it is concrete to me just why I am here and what I am here for. Maybe this came from your subconcious wanting to know the answers for lifes important questions. I think when you are getting older you start to ask these questions more. This was a really good poem.

    great work

    one day i'll day? I think you mean die? this was good folwed and i must say i'm 35 and i still wonder what my reason for being here is so dont let it get you down. I have come to the conclusion we are here to live life and enjoy the things in between life and death. other than that i have no idea. so dont fret great work and keep on penning.
    hugs and a smile ausangel.
