Chapter 236

Everyday

Surrounded by life
Each day it crushes us like a vice
Drowning out our desires
Before acting maybe we need think thrice

Look around, no one is happy
Living and happiness can't coexist
There are only moments of joy in life
Some come in a tryst

How can we escape the pain
Can we do more than try
We sink into oblivion
Nobody can feel you cry

No one cares or LISTENS
Nobody tries to lend a hand
Surrounded by many but none
Nothing works out as planned

Amongst the rubble of time
Buried within billions of grains of sand
We may find a beautiful gem
Few exist throughout this land

Do we treasure what we have found
Or just throw it away
Perhaps we may find better
As time slips away everyday

If we knew what we wanted
Not what we think we want
Could any lives be salvaged
Endlessly we seek and hunt

Nobody
