LIFE by Diamond Henry
October 4, 2013
What is life?
The real purpose.
Is it to establish something for my
Afterlife?
Or am I already being judged
and just
reliving memories?
Is this my second chance to
redeem my ways?
Or reliving my so called
Glory days?
Whatever it is,
I’ll question it no more.
For I know I have far too much in store.
And if I knew the answers to
These questions,
There’d be no reason to live
Anymore.
