Poems from green apple notebook LIVE and DIE 10/24/08 Today I lived, today I lived Like a newborn human, I cried Today I strived and I believed That waves and wind are on my side Today I felt the strongest urge To love the life I longed to live But by noon my soil let a surge By dusk a death note I received Drenched in fear, I opened my eyes Just to see a white ray of light But just as I see, it then dies Leaving me in the dead of night The hopes I mustered, I see them The dreams I kept, I see them all Up in the sky like a night’s gem Not to be reached until they fall But time is short, this day must close With or without me it will flow Another empty soul, I froze I failed to live, I failed to show To start and end the day, I cried Today I died, today I died.

LIVE and DIE10/24/08

Today I lived, today I livedLike a newborn human, I criedToday I strived and I believed

That waves and wind are on my side

Today I felt the strongest urge To love the life I longed to liveBut by noon my soil let a surgeBy dusk a death note I received

Drenched in fear, I opened my eyesJust to see a white ray of lightBut just as I see, it then dies

Leaving me in the dead of night

The hopes I mustered, I see themThe dreams I kept, I see them allUp in the sky like a night’s gemNot to be reached until they fall

But time is short, this day must closeWith or without me it will flow

Another empty soul, I frozeI failed to live, I failed to show

To start and end the day, I criedToday I died, today I died.
