Do you know the only value life has is what life puts upon itself? And it is of course overestimated, since it is of necessity prejudiced in its own favor. [You] do not lose anything, for with the loss of yourself, you lose the knowledge of loss.


In birth we are new
In life we wander, useless
In death, forgotten

I love it!  It's like a bitter sweet grasp onto something. . . . I'm not really sure what i'm trying to say here!  But this was good, keep writing!  Mind commenting on some of my work?  Thx!  ;)

I love this poem, I think it is amazing that you were able to capture so much in such a small amount of words.  I am quite jealous, I can never write Haiku's, the syllables always get me.
