Survival & Passion



A challenged soul;
Drives passion yo one's goal.
Facing twists and bumps along the road,
No matter what your role
Still got to pay the toll.
Looking for that path we can't seem to find;
It is the heart of one's mind.
While some resort to one side,
Struggling to adjust to an open mind,
Until that time to draw the line.
Life's too short to miss the signs,
So hurry up, before we run out of time.

The world moves way too fast
Makes us wonder how long we going to last.
Though some are haunted by their past;
Like a spell that's been cast.
With the way of today
We feel like rats in a cage,
As I try to keep up with societies pace.
The angers brewing got to control the rage,
Let it all out by writing on this page.
