Life Course

At school they always told you:
to follow your dreams, 
but they never mentioned you:
how expensive they are, 
selling your soul to live in the devils game
A chess game, 
life so dual its coined by consequence... 
A reality based on duality,
Morality and love-
Love under will, will under pain;
It takes pain to see the true values of life,
So we live in hell: learning how to be human, 
how to feel and how to relate.
 
A strange tale be a deep dream
A show of life's course 
The chronicles of the blue one
The earth, Gaea 
Only begotten son, 
but the moon visits every night...
Stars shine bright and brighter
As the universe gets darker,
Pains to gains the pendulum swing
Shifting events and we the grove,
Moving from side to side,
The cause, what we do and how-
we move effects our life course.
