The Meaning of Life
The meaning of life is just to exist;
Because, you are just going to end up losing everyone you love and get pissed.
The meaning of life is to use your talents;
Between working and relaxing, there needs to be a balance.
The meaning of life is to have something smart on the inside;
So, from this world, you can choose to hide.
The meaning of life is to not have too much cash;
For, many people with money to burn make decisions that are rash.
The meaning of life is to know how to spend;
So, into society, one can blend.
The meaning of life is self-therapy;
So, one can be the person one really wants to be.
Don't let the meaning of life be just to digest;
For, then you will be heavy and your sense of inner peace will never rest.
The meaning of life is to have self-worth;
Because you won't be here long on this Earth.
Because, you are just going to end up losing everyone you love and get pissed.

A rather heartfelt piece m'lady! Thanks for sharing such wonderful insight! I try not to disparage over extra money. Possessions never fill the void, and if one tries to do so, they'll end up emptier than they did before they had money...it is grim however, those who are born into it, for they have no concept of money. Everything is given to them without question, sadly such spoiled brats exist. But, would us simple folk still be as humble without them to set that example? Again, sorry for the riddle miss, I do so love your opinions. :)
Thank you, sir. You are very respectful as usual. I like that. How is it that you are so respectful to me; yet your poetry is severely disturbing?

I have multiple personalities, or I am whoever I need to be to suit the situation m'lady. Or, it's the fact that I am a true Gemini, in all it's forms...I have led an interesting life so far, I have an aptitude for feeling other peoples pain. It is from that, I truly draw from my inspirations and heartaches...I've had my fair share of pain as well (don't get me wrong) but there is nothing as despairing as the ill will and suffering of others. :) I hope that clears up your riddle...have a nice day miss. ;) There is also the fact that I am obsessed with the way you write...I have read many a trifle piece here on DUP, but none have ever been so loathing of another and driven by desire such as your work has. I am a fan. Simple as that, or even more complicated by the fact that you're very talented yourself. Whereas before you've stated that you do not really care about or really want feedback, I have simply underminded that authority and left behind my words of encouragement. The real reason? I feel that those with real talent deserve to have kind words spoken to them. I myself get discouraged easily, heaven forbid me be a hypocrite and allow myself to do it so willingly to others. Well, I have prattled on quite a bit, all apologies miss, hope I didn't take up too much of your time. If you allow me to be excused, until next time miss...

You'll have to excuse me for being blatant. I am quite drunk right now. What planet do you come from with your evil poetry and your kind and respectful comments? You are awesomely awesome!
