Life

Can you see it?
It's in people's eyes.
Their one goal,
Their whole life.

Can you feel it?
It's in the atmosphere.
That shimmer of hope,
That persistent tug.

Can you hear it?
It surrounds us.
The thumping chest,
The driving beat.

Can you taste it?
The air is different.
This is the change,
This is the vox populi.

Can you smell it?
Someone's blood, sweat and tears.
They gave it all,
To achieve this:

Their Dream.
Everything and one thing.
It is the only reason people live.
It is the one thing that you die with.
