Life's Secret
What is the secret of life?
Some evade the thought
Unable to face the idea
Afraid what they might find
Thinking the questions will consume
It will take all their thoughts
That it was swallow them whole
Never to be with peace
Others ponder the question
Feeling important that they do
Thinking they figured it out
That they are masters of the mind
Saying it was complicated
Others will not understand
Only they understand
Saying it boggles the mind
The first is too weak minded
Being afraid of a question
The second is arrogant
Complicating the anwser
I know simple answer
I hold it in my arms each night
The other half of my soul
It's just that simple
