This Life's Lesson

I longed for a way to tell all of the people I love
How deeply it was planted, seed turned blossom
The harvest of such love, was bountiful and full
I never understood the equation, but it isn't logic
My flesh will die and my memories will all fade
I'm aware that there is more, more than enough
My mind had always searched for reasons to fail
My heart had always held grudges, my narcotic
Life isn't easy, I saw myself as a stain, but now
I can see the returns, as my flesh burns, I'm loved
