[bodytext] => What is love but pain reversed, And what is pain but love at its worst, What is death but life in a hearse? And what is life but death’s dessert, Every day is a step towards night, Every death gives breath to life, What is Spring but Winter’s demise, A reflection of life’s contradictory sides, I’ve learned to love my sunsets, As much as my sunrise, Why do we laugh when a baby is born? But cry when one dies, When in a minute the deceased, Will pass through another womb, Yet that baby has just made, His first steps toward the tomb, I cry the same tears that precipitate the earth, And smile bright like the sun that gave it, its birth, Ignorant minds are the teachers of the enlightened, Enlightenments merely a simple mind heightened, I analyzed life and what it taught me, Is take the good with the bad, And the bitter with the sweet!
