Limn of Adult Life

After getting a world class education and a promise of renewed life We supposedly enter a life of endless opporunity A high salaried job becomes the life's expectation add to it a beautiful wife We spiritedly look for the endless opportunity Birth of a new born infuses a new blood relation another addition creates espousal strife We crib for the endless opportunity Diminished blacks and enhanced greys signify comprehension a mirror's reflection cuts like a knife We still wait for the endless opportunity Death angel releases our trapped cognition accepting fate with a last fife We whisper adieu to the endless opportunity
