Why
Why do this thing where we live life,
when one day we will not wake up?
Why get out of bed every morning
to drag our feet on the ground?
What impact can I have,
little me to this big world.
Why try?
We are young.
We are strong.
We could leave footprints on the core of the earth
if we tried.
Our bodies are small
but our minds,
oh our minds,
they're huge.
We could move mountains with them
if we tried.
Our hands themselves
are useless, hanging.
But our actions
how we move them
could change lives
if we tried.
So why get out of bed in the morning?
Why try if one day we will not wake up?
The answer:
To live life not for trivial things
but to leave footprints
to move mountains
to change lives.
But we need to try.
