Why one?

You only live once,

So follow your heart.

Live life, do you

Selfishness to impart.

 

A life lived fully for 80 short years,

A wasted life and righfully brought tears.

 

What good will come

To live for youself.

A  barren purpose

Ashes on a shelf.

 

To live for Lukas and neglect all others,

Is to uselessly breathe and forsake my brothers.

 

But to give up my life

Although it is scary.

A life of love,

The life of a missionary.

 

There's more than just me, I will not live for just one

But I'll live for the life, the way, the truth, the Son.
