When did life become this way?

 

It seems as if my life has paused 

With no reason for a cause

I see no incentive to go on

My goals as still as a pond

 

I see no light in the day

No flourish of creativity

Giving me my right of way

No serendipity

 

Oh how I wish to know less

Yet how I wished to progress 

How I wish to understand less

When my life became a tangled mess

 

And so I live chained to this creed

Never to be freed:

With age comes knowledge

And knowledge, a pledge

To embody responsibility

To the best of your ability

 

Yet they say it is a part of my journey

That it is but the pretext to my revelry

If this is true, then I would set things right

Regardless of my plight

 

I would take my contrition

And turn it into many a notion

Bursting with creativity

All the more for productivity

 

I would take my buried pride 

And create a life worth the ride

With this fresh, young life

And create one worth the price 

 

So that when the time comes,

I will set myself free

With this daring creed:

With age comes knowledge,

And knowledge,

Power
