The Best Thing

There is more than we can do
There are things before
Long ago something changed
There is more the same about us than different

Being alive is the best thing longer the better
When you fulfill your primary function life gets easier
Nice way to say old
Nothing imperative your own
Everything you were to become

Younger you would not believe where you are going
Everything seems so important but you have this need
This need to do

We come to our mortality once
Or morality comes to us
We arrive and observe
Then we must do

You only really have one relationship
You know who it is with
When we love specific people hard enough
New ones arrive

We come to our friends
Or family comes to us
They arrive and teach
They seemed to know

You can feel your biology
Our number of senses has none
They can't be counted
As we look closer we find more

We can imagine looking closer than we can
Part of you knows the alignment of the Earth's magnetic core

I didn't like everyone at school
Some people seemed strange
I liked all my cousins
My kind of strange

Not so unusual
If we were architecture there would be one school
