Let Live

life in rambling

Life-

It is fleeting;

The heart

Will cease beating

One faraway day.

The breath

Knows no better

Than to escape the breast

Only to return 

And relieve a desperate soul;

Every turn 

And every corner boasts

Dangers unknown to man,

Ignored by the ignorant

And those who deny death

In pitiful vain. 

Let life live

And leave life to love,

For with every breath,

It nears the final gasp,

Life too capricious a thing

To admit when it will 

Grow weary and fade.

What good is life

When it is not lived in ways

Only the heart can dictate,

In ways only one 

Can dare to comprehend?

It is a personal, sacred thing-

It is to be revered and cherished

While explored and prodded,  

Helpless in the hands 

Of he or she 

Who breathes in each breath.

This is beautiful. It speaks out about how life is so precious. We can't just go along playing it safe forever. We need to live life, play is safe at some corners and take the dangerous jump off the edge at others. Beautiful, Sarah, you've touched me once again
