I Live to Die

Location

I live to see the sunshine, brighter than the green on pine

I live to see the rain, gloomy and forever a pain

I live to eat, stuffing my mouth whereever I find a seat

I live to drink, only to end up in the kitchen sink

I live to succeed, a passion that is more than just greed

I live to fail, sometimes sinking before I sail

I live to learn, seeking greater knowledge I yearn

I live to forget, of days younger and pants wet 

I live to love, to find a hand that fits my glove

I live to hate, to shout at things irrate

I live to be alive, so I can do all these things and thrive

Most importantly

I live to die
