The World We Live In

Sometimes,
I remember this…
This thing
We do
That sometimes feels
Like an infinite,
Never ending dream

doesn’t have proper endings,
Certainly not satisfied ones,
It goes far from a simple,
Little storyline,
Closer to an itchy,
Tangled mess

That there is no main character,
No villain,
No happily ever after.

This thing.
It has names,
Like growing up,
Or being independent,
In most cases,
Its called life

And the most wicked thing is,
It hits like a blow
To the chest;
Sharp and jolting
quick and painful
