Another c minor poem, why am I here?

What do ya’ll think of this poem?

Why…

What is the purpose of my existance? Am I here to make a difference? Am I here because god loves me? Or am I just a f*ckn dummy? Am I here to change the world? Or am I here to love this girl? Am I here for all I’ve said? Or is it all just in my head? Am I here to help the people? Am I here to stop the evil? Am I here to find the truth? Or do I really have no clue? It seems we roam the earth like cattle, Ignorant to the holy battle, Yin and yang, or good and bad, Dark and holy, happy, sad… I feel like there is a reason, My life was spared to fight these demons, My quest is noble, My cause is global, But right now I’m stuck at local, I cannot reach the world at large, So I write these poetic bars.. My message is, to live your life, As best you can, and to do right, I think I’m supposed to shine the light, In places where it’s not so bright…

Answer #1

i hope you do not take offense,         To that that comes hereafter;         ’Tis only that it’s my two-cents,         Not one penny more thereafter. §;o)       I choose

I chose to be born, – to live or die, Even the sex, that would be I; I chose the race, from which to appear, Also my wealth, my health and my fear.

I chose my trials and stumbling blocks, And the legs I would use, in all of those walks; I chose my sadness, my joy and my love, I chose to serve and not be above.

I chose this life – with all of its dues, And with each dawn, again I choose; The experiences for me that wait ahead, To be alive, or be claimed dead.

And of the future lives I’ve yet, It is my choice that I begat; All the things, however pleasin’, That shall befall me in those seasons.
