The Load of Life

Life is like a maze.
Too many turns if you ask me.
A dark and dusty haze.
Through which you can't see.
A great load to bear.
With an infinit weight.
You can't take it off anywhere.
You just have to wait.
Wait until your time has come.
And don't forget to say goodbye.
Then you drop the load and run.
Then you're free from the load of life.
