Literature Text

I live in the World
I have spent time here
I have seen it
I have felt it

When the wind blows
I wonder if the World is happy
Because the wind, when it blows,
Brings me bliss, serenity

When the rain falls
I wonder if the World is crying
Although its people are dancing
And although its life is renewing

When I see the eyes of someone else
When I am fully aware of existence
Someone, something
Other than my own self

I wonder how much we really know
How much we do not know
How much we will learn
And what we will not learn

What, exactly, does Death hide from us?
What is Life too shy to reveal?
And, then, what are we too blind to see?
What are we too busy to discover?
I wrote this for my junior or senior English class.
