The Less of Life

Life has long seized to hold me spellbound.
I do not follow the rules of existence.

Life is a chore 
That I've lost the skills to tackle

Life is a battle and I am no soldier 
I am no longer interested in fighting.
I want peace - not war

I am no longer alive, but I live
And yes I also exist, but I follow no rules

I have beliefs so strong-

I believe in the futility of my existence
