I love my life and yet I don't—

When I look around my home,

There are bodies laid,

All the blood swayed,

And dancing ghosts alone.


I love my life and yet I don't—

When I look beside my home,

There's a cry of a child,

Bile in my throat,

And screams of dying hope.


I love my life and yet I don't—

When I look inside my home,

There are hushed truths,

Echoing lies,

And laughter of taunting souls.


I love my life and yet I don't—

When I look away from home,

With haunting pasts,

And failing present,

No one to hold on.


I love my life and yet I don't—

When I look beyond my home,

There are graves of winners,

Houses of losers,

And mockings of hollow hearts-

Who leave me always alone.


I love my life and yet I don't—

When I look around the world,

The taints become clearer,

And history repeats.

The hauntings continue,

As the globe spins.

And thus the cycle of life goes on.
