Dear Life Poem by Alyse Reichardt

Why do we have to grow old, thinking of how we'll die? Why do we have to love someone when they just make you cry?
Life is so confussing I wish it never was, learning how to live when the next you know you've died.

Whats the meaning for life? and is there after death? I wish I knew these answers, but I dont so i'll just plead..

Please god if there is one, make life not so hard, make there no poverty, no pain to touch the heart. I am all I see and I see all I am, maybe one day i'll die and live again.
