Journey of Life

Journey of Life

Strange is life, stranger are its ways,
Filled as much with mystery as much as thrill,
When the shores are silent, the waves leave the bay,
Like moments that seem as much alive as much as still.

Having reached crossroads at life, I'm feeling weary,
After the toils of sweat that over years I have shed,
And I'm feeling like the skies too are cloudy and dreary,
Like the emptiness within and the heart that has bled.

The sun comes up, it's time to face the day,
and I think that life shall today be all right-
And as the day wears on I dont let my nerves fray,
To the hollowness that creeps within me every night.

I know its time to look ahead on the outside,
time to tread life's journey on a new way -
I'm wonderin' where I'll ever find the strength inside,
to do it all again without going astray.

I have to erase the memories of how it began
sift away the emotions from reality -
I wipe the mirror, dust on my hands,
The shadow clears, a new personality.

I look to the sky, a cloudless sway
Put a conch to my ear, a silent sea
Strange is life, stranger are its ways
An empty path ahead, that connects to me...
