At the End of the Day
Is this my achievement?
This is not what I planned for
Clueless answers is all I seem to get
Darkness now lights the room of my thoughts
Everything I built now in smithereens
Broken pieces now left for me
Beauty faded away like memories
As ashes that are worthless to me
But I should have seen it coming
Where was the weak link that made it fall?
I was so confident because it was so tall
Never know so great a fall was coming
I wouldn’t build again, its point is lame
It is bound to leave the way it once came
Like eating just to get hungry again
Wasted effort lies at the end of the day
