The Unstoppable Way of Zife

In times of strife and despair 
Desperation and aspiration 
The only thing we can know
Is the way the cycle of zife
Keeps moving with no sign of stopping
Never to be hindered 
Regardless of the effort 
of the conscious mind 
to be not so,

So we drown out the feelings we simply cant face
In the sweet numbing liquid
The only reprieve from a day in which we grieve 
The loss of things being the way they were
More forgotten time spend trying to forget.
