BANE OF LIFE

Deep, deep down  

I know your heart is jammed 

with the invisible tears 

when they ask 'are you alright?"

it sounds rhetoric, and sucking too

you feel like not answering

but then you explode, 'yes I am'

why do you bother saying it

when you already think

that nobody cares what you're going through

it is there, I know, but you cannot find it

the reason to keep going

blinded by the serfdom trauma

you just think it is the price you have to pay

your happiness for this life? oh no

what kind of life with no merriment

'if the price is too much just sit back'

say others, so you are giving up yet?

why opting an upside-down thinking

think up straight and perceive

the hour before dawn is the darkest

it is time to keep your eyes wide open

the dawn twilight is everywhere to conquer

keep up your tenacity

perseverance is the weapon to victory

a hero always keeps his exuberance with him

tie up your shoes brethren

there is no time to rest yet

the journey has just begun

that little strength left of you 

it takes you a million miles further.
