in this life

a somber day in this life
nothing makes sense in this life
why do I hurt today from this life

we search for answers we can't find
disease took loved ones that were kind
that empty hole has taken your heart
it's dead right now and needs a start

well I miss them much in this life
to see them smile again in this life
and if they read these words in this life

we search for cures greed and money hide
from companies that put our lives aside
they make medicine without a cure
and if it works it will cost you more!

these sore teary eyes from this life
can't fix this hollow space in this life
to feel like your so alone in this life

we lose our way from the hurt and pain
looking for someone whom is to blame
searching for answers but not in time
a spot on the scan or is it benign

vague memories are left in this life
if I could just freeze time in this life
and what might of been in this life

well theres no easy answer one can find
just live out your life and always be kind
its never too late theres always some hope
even through tough days when its hard to cope

things will be better now in this life
my sun will shine brightly in this life
and if I could believe myself in this life

we need to look past the dark filled skies
look up to the heavens and not question why
in all of lifes creation we start and we end
but whats more important is the love you send

we'll always be here when your time arrives
so live out your life-live it alive!
never look back-move forward and drive!

About this poem:

this poet has a hard time understanding why it always seems that the kind-hearted people seem to get the worst diseases..so i question why? we've all been to this place before..this is just my words,but it still doesn't answer why?

thanks darkhorse,i wrote this awhile back after my dad passed from cancer,he was a workaholic in the construction field then later retired,shortly afterward cancer took his life,now i live life for each day,his death hit me hard and even to this day,i still say ...why?...life is like a pair of dice,each day you roll them and hope that the numbers are never the same.

It always seems like that but probably not accurate, deep thoughts here.

When my husband passed away, I wondered why? When all he ever did was good.
A heartfelt poem S.P
