Why so Serious?

Smile more- "if you take life too serious, you'll never get out alive."

  

       Why so serious, Love?
   Life is but a passing dream
                              Ending in a puff of smoke, acrid in texture
                                    So like a dream is life's euphoria
                                   Easily missed if not somewhat aware
  

     So why so serious, Love
      And eager to be awake?
    Life will pass quickly enough
                                      You need not be in such haste...

Author's Note

Just remember- learn to love to live life to love living.

This poem actually helps me a bit... It is filled with truth and wisdom. I hope it helps other people as well, because it really hits my heart in a positive manner. It's true- why are we in such a haste?
