Soliloquy
How far have we gone
When all is said and done
What, till now, have we achieved?
Have we even earned reprieve?
For there’s more around the corner
Keep going, that’s an order
There’s nothing left
I feel bereft
Yet still I must engage
Think back upon our lives
In all the broken times
Ever once were we proud?
Was it drowned out by the sound?
Of a world where we can’t be
Do you feel it, is it me
I carry on
The same sad song
Of disquiet, silent rage
Now looking far ahead
Don’t look too far, you’ll be dead
But in the meantime can you find?
Some sort of peaceful piece of mind?
Perhaps what I say is true
Even then, not me nor you
Can coexist
With what we wish
And all what we have estranged
