 Ups and downs,

 We have had our own share.

 We have witnessed days passed by in gloom,

 We have been awakened so many morns

 By the misery of a new dawn.



 And in the noonday all our lives,

 We have been scorched brown by the heat of this infernal sun.

 By the seconds we run wild,

 Seeking the rules to the game.

 An aim all in vain!

 

 We end up rewarded with blemishes.

 We languish in this hypersauna of ours,

 Full of lustfull hopes.

 We hope on days we will live lavishly,

 And become relieved of the wanderlust.

 

 And if ever we meet fufillment in this regard,

 It is not without a stigma,

 Perhaps a blemish for a seconder.

 Pains for fame,

 They call the name the wind bears.

 

 Acclaimed they look not on his pains.

 They recall not his days of wanderings,

 Journeys in quest of a vision.

 Seeking hidden secretes that become riddles.

 Maybe it was the reason,



 I was told:

 "just a piece of your fair share,

 Of life"S woes and foes"
