85. Poem

I just don't breathe, I live graciously

A life of fullness and plenty 

 

I just don't love, I passionately romance 

Loving every moment I spend with he 

 

I don't just belong, I do it wholeheartedly 

Allowing everything that's mine to be shared with he 

 

I just don't teach, I do it enthusiastically 

Creating intellectual minds to forever be 

 

I just don't serve, I do it humbly 

Feeling it an honour to serve my fellow beings 

 

I don't just worship, I do it willingly, obediently 

Too obliged to be bestwed this great opportunity 

 

I don't just cry, my heart sheds tears of blood 

For every regret, hurt, pain and sorrow for me or others 

 

I don't just Exists, I positively manifest 

Every aim, dream and desire, to live a purposeful life on earth
