Reflextion

Time travels slowly through our lives
But with a quick blink of an eye
Can vanish into air
Looking at yourself
Goals lost in time's game
The attempts to change
The scars of the past 
Most are scars of bad timing
Others are scars of success and hard work
Your life,
Dull, tough and slow
Pushing hard just to wake up
Loosing lots just for little gain
Giving in so won't give up
Holding back and pushing forward
Hoping and praying it gets better
Knowing luck and befriending karma
Nothing in your life gets better
Working hard to get above
The reflextion of you
Looking at yourself 
From the outsiders view
