Elation

Author's note: This is a poem about the emotions that come with a new summer and then the ones that will accompany a new school year.

Freedom at no expense
Elation
Nowhere to be
Sloth
Nothing to do
Relaxation
Friends whenever and wherever
Glory
Running out of things to do
Needing
Seeing nobody
Desire
Being the oldest
Craving
Losing everything and starting over
Nervousness

The Meaning of Life

What really is life? Why are we here? We have been born right into this moment of time. Is that just luck and happening or is a divine hand involved. Is there really a God or just science? Does this idea of something divine change everything? It may seem only scientific, but does something divine make it so? It may just be luck that Earth is just far enough from the sun to let life exist on it. Is it possible that a God made the Earth this far away, or made the sun only just as hot as it is? Why do I think like I do? Is it coincidence or did something make me like I am? What drives us to make the decisions we make everyday? It may seem unimportant, but it could completely alter our path in life.
