Life's a race where every steps a test,
Being aheads the goal, but praise is the quest,
Behind smiles so bright ,mask hide the night,
Facade of goodness, but heart's aren't right
Another's plight a muted plea,
Lost in shadow's of apathy.
And to speak of self, no soul to capture seems,
Too much I hoped, a fault within my dreams,
I stumble oft, my way unclear,
Confused by paths, both far and near,
A choice, I made in clouded mind,
Yet still, it's Echo leaves me blind,
And too, some sorrows stain,
Now lost,, I know not how to gain?
