"Life"
Lightning splits the darkest night,
Thunder rolls -
Why is my fate to have this plight?
Does it concern the wrong or right?
Was I born to fight this fight?
Why can't I climb to some new height?
There's always pride though sometimes slight,
So I work on with all my might.
I have dreamed my dream and set my sail
On a mission in life that is doomed to fail.
June 1979
