Y I

why do I breathe
but to grow
no matter the murk
why do I love
but to glow
no matter the smirk
why do I die
but to be freed to go
no matter the quirk




Author notes

I breathe, love and die into Life.

    Thank you for entering my why contest. I think that this is a very interesting take on the prompt of the question why. Well written.

    Haai daar Ouvrou. Ek sien jy't kom kuier so uit die bloute.
    Ek haal asem want ek is te vrek bang om nie te nie. en Vir baie lank het my lompe pogings om liefde in the haal hand aan hand met smirks gegaan.
    En dood? In die swart nag voel ek die ewigheid om my: tegerlykertyd eindeloos en ontsettend benoud. En ek striem na die son...

    Essentials of life shaped into poetry by an awareness that exceeds that of most. When living from such a perspective life or death aren't that distinguished. Ack,
