Routine

Routine 
You wake every morning 
You retire every night 
You repeat this in life 
You rise and fall daily 

You are up for work each morning 
You are down at night exhausted 
You have no choice in the sequence 
You are bound to the cycle of life 

You eat every time hunger comes
You must be hungry again and eat
You enjoy when it brings great fun
You are pained in times of failure 

You are angry when challenged
You are happy when it feels good 
You fast and pray to achieve a goal
You get so glad and forget the source 

You are in a cycle you should know 
You keep  recycling  if you choose 
You can choose to choose otherwise 
You then live a life free of its burden
