My Karma
For miles silence reigns
For years solitude,
My heart is heavy
My spirit low
And I have a long way to go.
In life's eternal journey
I walk alone,
The night is dark,
Somewhere yonder
lies my home
And I must traverse
many silent shores.
I cannot laugh,
Try as I may
I cannot bring
myself to weep,
My joys and woes die
before they materialize.
From dawn to dusk
I have toiled often
gathering the remnants
of my broken dreams.
Before a hope is built
It crumbles down,
Before a conception is framed
Frustration overwhelms me.
I am helpless
I drift through life,
As many a time I think to live
As many a time I die!
