In Real Life

In Real Life

By Nathan Hannen

Cold and Wind, Ice and Snow, Freezing everything I know
Something and nothing, Everything to show, Wind taking everything to go
Contemplating guilt, Buried to the hilt, A thousand tears are spilt
Ticking and elapsing, Infrastructures collapsing, All the while a constant relapsing
People talking and laughing, Times walk by passing, Years amassing
Systems of hate and love, Ever flying above, The winding flight of a dove
What is real life?, A painful battle of and through strife, Or a story told in so many 
ways, Its rife

The End.
