Such a Time as This

I know not why you came like the passing of the wind
I will never understand the happenings in the womb
I may not ever discern what the meaning of your birth was nor comprehend the purpose of your death

But you were born for such a time as this

In birth our souls are perfected and our spirits are whole
None of us really know the purpose of our birth or know the length of our days
None of us understand the meaning of death

But you were born for such a time as this

There is only birth and death and it is called life
We all share the same beginning and end

For we were all born for such a time as this
