Window of Future
Veil of a light shine brightly to my face
blocks my view against a glance
unto the window of after today
each day I wake up I try
to take a glimpse
A stone of puzzle reside in my chest
the future remain not exposed
along the road of hope
As I struggle day by day with heavy heart
with focus that I will cope
Assume I'm a sibyl; am able to forecast all:
Years upon years as struggle go on
yet the future remains unknown
I know when is the time and what to do to succeed.
I will sleep and have fun till a wee of the second,
I will then do a little work and within
some weeks I'm successful
I conjure those who claim to be the seer
only HE is the knower and the seer
of an unfailing future
while tomorrow remain unrevealed or obscure
an unfailing future
as it is a tale of coming and going
as struggle for life goes on
