There are times when I
wonder
what it is about this life
that makes me go on living
It’s not with joy that I
greet each new day
It’s not with hope that I watch the sun rise
I feel as though I’ve lost my way
The dreams that once lit up my eyes
do not excite me anymore
There’s no fun in the
challenges
that pushed me and made my spirits soar
that pushed me and made my spirits soar
Though it seems I’ve achieved
some of what I set out to do
travelled part of the way
on my destined path
why do I still feel
restless?
Why does it feel that something
still eludes my grasp
still eludes my grasp
Like quicksilver it slips
from my hand
Like a mirage it disappears
just as I feel it is
within reach
No matter what I do
all that remains
is an emptiness within
that refuses to be filled
No matter how much I
hurry
or how fast I go
I feel I don’t really
know
how to find happiness
anymore
