Forgive Fear (May She Love Again)

-1 To stay or to go,
to live or to die,
the fool's Heart or the Wise Man's eye?
-4 To live is to love,
which is, as we all know, to cherish,
but in the end, do we not cherish life but perish?
-7 So, that's when we go, we leave,
we exit the back door,
But is that what we end up living for?
-10 Do we waste in the sand,
throw the hourglass on the floor,
or are our lives meant for something more?
-13 Maybe we have a purpose,
a reason for us being,
for feeling, for thinking, for hearing and seeing.
-16 And what if there is a calling,
will we hear it in time?
Or is the purpose not worth knowing, grand, or sublime?
-19 Like the summer, life is carefree,
it's the leaving that can harm,
so forgiving the Wise Man is life's true charm.
-22 So, dare me, I swear to thee
you won't regret the choice,
to listen to the fool's heart, and hear his voice. -24 -NN
