Did you ever notice how the flowers seem happier?
Seeking sun and wind-dancing with all but no desire?
What's in it for you when you keep trudging in the fire?
Success for a month or two till it all gets bleak and dire?
Thoughts of family and a better life
Light up your mind's space like the skies at night,
How are you going to get there wallowing in all this strife?
You don't know but you choose to hold on and fight
What happens when life kicks you back to where it all started?
To square one where you sat alone while your friends departed,
Will you hold on to trust and the fire of desire-
Or is this the part of the story where you begin to misfire?
