Internal study
Dominick Harvey 1993 (FL)
What is the epitome of life
What does it entail
Despite my efforts to succeed
Somewhere I know I will always fail
How can it be better if it's something I can't believe
Life itself is an obstacle full of pain and grief
Searching for an easier route through
Tugging on the chains that hold my soul
The thought of fear keeps me here
Bound by the will to live and accomplish self goal
Trials and tribulations are far more than what's expected
So hear me loud and clearly
Summarizing the truths while enraged
A chapter in this book cannot be confined to just one page
