Scene 184: To Live

They would climb mountains
They would trek deserts
They would span oceans
and we would breathe
while you slept

They would fight lions
They would hunt bears
They would ride elephants
and we would breathe
while you ate

They would win wars
They would earn awards
They would solve life
and we would breathe
while you basked

They would find space
They would drown oceans
They would dig gorges
and we would live
while you died
