Life

A Perspective

Calm,

Before the storm

Silence,

Before it all falls apart

Peace,

Before the war rages

Serenity,

Even with the end of a masterpiece

Love,

Even in the pain

Justice,

Even for the weak

Light,

In the darkness

Beauty,

In the pain

Simplicity,

In the chaos

A world,

Destined for destruction

People,

Destined for suffering

Life,

Destined to end someday

Minutes,

Like eternity

Certainty,

Like a dream

Clarity,

Like a façade

Expectations,

A counter productive guideline

Reality,

A question of perspective

Success,

A relative viewpoint

Heartache,

Means we are alive

Belief,

Means we think we know best

The end,

Means a new beginning
