Looking Past Life

The struggle I go through you cannot see But yet this is how we all chose to be Watching, wating for what we cannot see All we ever want is just one thing But we focus so much unto the prize We don't not enjoy the ride, our rise We fail to see what beyond there lies We wish to only get to that one place Not enjoying the actual race But in this race there is no first place No one to say they came in first But the one who enjoys this life, the race the most Is the one who will have earned the right to boast.
