Breath of Life 

PEOPLE
 


People… are merely people in all the world.
They have their feelings,
Their anxieties…
And at the end of their lives,
They will have the balance
Of their entire lives.
 

People… are merely people in all the world.
They have several stages in their lives:
First as babies desiring comfort and care.
Then as school boys or girls, without will in life.
Then come the lovers, like all lovers with broken hearts…
And as an adult, without peace in their lives.
 

People… are merely people in all the world.
Life passes by… and soon old age comes.
Very soon they reach their sixties, their seventies.
The age of wisdom, the age of knowledge.
Wishing to return to the time of their childhood,
Desiring as before the same comfort, the same care…
 

BUT BEING FORGOTTEN
