This poem seems to explore physical hardships, emotional pain but also adopts an inspirational tone... Some key quotes are:
"veins collapse"
reference to "children"
"rotting flesh" - strong imagery is created here as you probably noticed too :)
"Lines along my face"
"I keep on dying, Because I love to live." - notice the JUXTAPOSITION - life and death...
life is to be loved despite the physical hardships - it is a game that is not easy but once we learn out 'lesson' and manage to start a new life, we can overcome other difficult experiences easily.
Only one long stanza - like life being one long, difficult journey with no pauses... "children" highlighting the possibility of feeling being reborn after tough 'lesson's... Physical failure but psychological/emotional survival & strength.
