APEKE XIII
Apeke; what is life?
Life is the song in these broken lines
It is the verses on your sweet smiles

It is the striking chord
On the surface of your skin

It is the throne/tune in your heart…
Life is a coin
It is Love and Hate
Pain and Gain
Smile and Sorrow
Success and Failure;
It is the Cloud on broken faces
The Sun of romantic lovers,
It is life and Death!
Life is two hearts as one
Life is You and I
Life is our love
We are the life!
