Not Living Life According To the Commandments
Time slips away as life does,
they give us enough clues
how to live and prosper;
many refuse the knowledge
they provide and put it aside...
is there the one who's clever?
Be aware that not living
life according to the commandments,
it's shortened it by years,
being a portent testimony of grief
to a controversial belief;
who has lived long enough
can explain their feeling
of extreme delightfulness...
instead of thinking about death!
Finding understanding is not harder than
looking for a trustworthy, humble heart
which has no greed inside, only compassion;
Has anybody found it and dispelled their distrust?
O unfair life ragefully bringing darkness upon
the glorious dreams not yet transformed into realistic visions,
these resentful thoughts are the echoes of battles not won...
ravens circling over the wounded bodies in mortal agony,
isn't the gushing of their blood a cry for imminent clemency?
Doesn't this bleak spectacle attest to Man's unmercifulness?
If a scream is prevented from exhaling the choking breath,
what could one do to escape this realm of oppressed sentiment?
Exhale twice and let it fly to where mercy abolishes the rod of torment,
where humans arent' as cruel as Seth, the merciless god of death!
