This Life

After all our toil
nothing lasts forever
happiness comes
in bits and pieces
as we want to touch it
it melts like a flake
vanishing into oblivion

But whatever
life moves on
through spiky
and steeply path
However hard we try
we can't get used to
our failed excursoins
it hurts a lot

This life
full of compromises
pining for the unreacheable
but life's lesson is
fight back
till the energy drains out
from the aching body
till you cross
the threshold of life
and enter a new world
where there is no more pain
nor sorrow anymore
