Life passes by!

Feeling anger as I sit and reflect,

Desperate I gaze, with frustration

And hopelessness upon the future,

As I consider my plight.

And life passes by.

The regular routine is not for me,

Neither are desires and wants for me,

Disinterest and indifference for daily events,

A normal day is boredom for me.

And life passes by.

Car and shares are a bother,

Wife and kids are a burden,

Money and power are a tension,

Alone by myself is heaven.

And life passes by.

My basic nature I have seen,

My mind my ego and all,

The steering is still in their hands,

They still make me dance.

And life passes by.

Persevere calls a voice from within,

Every moment has its meaning,

Today I still am a victim of the senses,

But only a prisoner knows real liberty.

And life passes by.

Wisdom is in equanimity,

Balancing the defeats with the victories,

Rise and proceed even when, pothole

Cause a stumble and level roads cause a crash.

Still, life passes by.
