Nothing Seems Wrong

Slow I wail on the road of no return 
Like a soul that departs from its body with no respect

Silence I talk to get
To soothe the pain I didn’t prepare


In the jungle of no trees I sit
To prepare for my last breathe I take


Mother! Mother! I cry 
Thunder storms that wawl

Slow I speak
but distance death drags me on


Help! Help! Help! I pull
But in the midst of no where I creep

My last respect they give 
But silently I sit to weep


Very well they wish I match on 
But poorly I know I live on

Mansions I suffer to build
But in the coffin I didn't prepare to live 

Nothing will ever seem right 
In this game of no fame
