The Journey

Many choices amid the world’s voices
Run away or hide among other choices
When I could not happily greet the day
I knew I had enough suffering and fray

I began my search for life of a millionaire
But all I discovered was a life of despair
I hunted till my mind was disappointed
Because everything seemed brutally unfair

I crashed into jagged rocks of uncertainty
Potholes of doubt almost swallowed me
While stalking the home of silver lining
Along life’s paths and grisly journey

Crushed by the weight of my sullenness
I stopped a while for a well needed recess
That’s when I lifted veil of mitote maya
Said adios gloom, and hello to Shangri-la
