Is this what life is all about? <br />All there is to know... <br />I can't believe I've come this far <br />And still so far to go; <br />I haven't scratched the surface <br />Barely scribbled on the page, <br />And here I am about to end - <br />It puts me in a rage! <br /> <br /> <br />We need an expiration date <br />To keep us to the task <br />Of reaching goals significant <br />To answer what we ask; <br />It's all so very puzzling <br />This living that we do, <br />I need my own identity <br />But also, I need you! <br /> <br />So what's the actual purpose <br />Of my life experience? <br />To keep my thoughts in motion <br />While I'm sitting on this fence? <br />I wish I had the energy <br />To finish up with flair, <br />When all is said and done I guess.................... <br />You wager what you dare. <br /> <br /> <br />10/24/2008<br /><br />Linda Ori<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-all-is-said-and-done-6/
