Breath of Life 

Why shouldn’t I cry?
If I know your eyes cry.
Why should I not suffer?
If I know you are suffering. 

Don’t cry, don’t suffer.
Let me cry and suffer for you.
 

Life commands our today…
Our tomorrow.
May you not cry and not suffer,
That’s what I asked Life for 

But… Life doesn’t listen, doesn’t listen to our requests.
Life doesn’t know what it’s like to cry… what it’s like to suffer…
Life seems to have no heart, no feelings.
AV ida only… commands our life.
