LIFE

Life is a maze,
which everyone must go through
but unlike a maze,
there is no exit,
until,
you,
die.

Life is a puzzle,
which everyone must solve
but unlike a puzzle,
it cannot be solved,
until,
you,
die.

Life is a vast, open sea,
which everyone must swim through
but unlike a sea,
there is no shore,
until,
you,
die.

Life is a high, high mountain,
which everyone must climb,
but unlike a mountain,
there is no peak,
until,
you,
die.

Life is something,
extraordinary to humans,
always a surprise,
and like a surprise,
you don't know of what's coming,
until,
you,
die.
