What a hellish life it is!
Happiness, a mirage
We ever long for
All try; only a few succeed
The rest remain
Broken,
Frustrated
Left for hovering
Between despair and hope.
The days we are hoping for
Never tread
The tender heart
Only the shadow of sorrow
Is brighter
On gloomy face
To show the life :
The dreary, thorny path
God has created
For His amusement!
Life is a penance-
A perenniel repentance
Over what Man did
in Eden -
By disobeying God.
