A Challenged Earth
The challenge inside me
Grows every day
Will I ever be free
Is there any escape
To dwell on past
To worry of futur
To never be last
To always push further
To take evey task
I sometimes wonder why
I often think to ask
Is this the answer to my life
At the end of it all
Did I face the right challenge
Did I make the right call
Did I take true advantage
I don't believe life
Meant for the questions
The tension and strife
Material obbsessions
We push for the things
We should Already have
Enough food and clothing
A bed and a bath
All along we're forforgetting
Exactly what we are
A force of humanity
Flying around a star
With one purpose only
As underlying as it is
To die and not die lonely
I guess the challenge is to live.
