What is life?

Life,
What is it?
Do you live it?
Or do you watch fly by?

Life is a pathway,
To the only day,
That you can say,
Is your last.

What comes after life?
No one knows,
but what doesn't show,
Is there to grow.

It can cause pain,
When someone has died,
But they are not in vain,
For another life has not been denied.

Life is the beginning,
Death is the end,
This is the ultimate.
