Whats Next
Paul Weaver 1964 (Virginia)
I wonder sometimes why i am here.
And where do i fit in this world.
A lot of people just don't know life is hard.
They take a lot for granted till it's empty.
When down they reach but nothing is there.
Everyone in a rush like the wind in a whirl.
In life's path was i Dealt the right card.
If everyone shared there would be plenty.
As this earth gets older death is everywhere.
Life is very hard we all need to be thorough.
For everyone knows not what it is to starve.
Children always think that there's plenty.
When i die for where will i be, not here.
