Life's Heavy Weight
Mundane life, so routine, so conditional, so mutational
Has me feeling like I carry a weight with me
On my soul, on my heart, in my intentions,
In my choices, on the very essence of my fate!
Mundane life, so boring, has me smiling and closing my eyes
In the silence of the darkness that closes in on me
While dreaming of the power acting behind me
Pray, wish I to decipher its cryptogram
So that I may feel as light as air
Carefree, without the weight that accompanies me!
Mundane life appeals not to me,
I see no aim in living it
Other than finding and holding the hands of
The other part of my soul
Meant to accompany on the journey towards Eternity!
Pray, mundane life, so totally chaotic
Expects us to behave with it, like robots
With the will to keep on toiling
As if such were all that matter in life
And having the desire to keep on surviving
Whatever happens to us and to our surroundings!
From the mundane life wish I to be saved, of course,
After having accomplished my share of duties
Why, being a free spirit can be quite stinging!
