The Edge of the World

At the edge of the world he sat and he thought,
pondering things of this life.
what was he here for, why was he born,?
how long until he would die?

was there life after death, was this life a test?,
was the best things in life yet to come?
did anyone love him, unconditionally love him,
would they miss him when he's finally gone?

all of his thoughts seemed confusing,
thinking of what ifs and whys.
only God knows what he's doing,
he's just along for the ride.

so he picked his self up and brushed his self off,
and climbed from the loft of the barn.
leaving his deep thoughts at the edge of the world,
and went back to his chores on the farm.
