Life

Treading water in a vast ocean of turmoil
Alone against life's unchecked aeonian fury
and with each wave rides another calamity
and with each moaning gust blows tradgedy
alone in the Ocean of Woe left to toil

The eternal struggle in itself not for life
rather, an incessant battle for each breathe
never a moment for concious thought-strife
never a moment to ponder life-death
each breath a travesty of the knife-blink

with each laboursome breath i grow stronger
like in summer my days grow longer
chance or providence be it what it may
love found me and like Apollo's golden ray
melted my heart that i may feel again

Atop conquered peaks i now reign
In divine light i am esteemed: free from pain.
