Remote memories of happiness have now faded
I remember a world that was so obtuse and hated
Unforeseen and unforgiving
Is this life, a life worth living?
Expression is depression because it is not real
No matter how hard you try, pain I cannot feel
My opinion is merely echoed in the back of my mind
Wake me up from this bad dream, so I can leave it behind
Does prosperity come into effect now or never?
Truth is you can not create it, it is gone forever
Please do not try and play God
My soul is now a tainted fraud
Running towards the light, or walking away
An option worth a debt that I can not pay
Unforeseen and unforgiving
Is this life, a life worth living?
This is the ultimate test of strength and of spirit
The grim reaper is coming; should I fear it?
Its only a matter of time before the jaws of life will swallow me whole
Time that I have wasted, trying to recover my now wandering soul
Perhaps I will hold my head up for something good that may come along
I do not know how much longer I can stand listening to this sad song
One billion ways to die; which will I choose?
Racing in the pursuit of happiness that I will no doubt lose
I believe we are all searching for our own paradise
For myself, finding my soul will be more than suffice
Unforeseen and unforgiving
Is this life, a life worth living?
My eyes tell a tale of honesty, while my mouth speaks lies and deceit
I pray my journey ends before a mortician puts a tag on my feet
I am lost in the past, present, or future - maybe all three
I have 20/20 vision but still I am unable to see
I am gambling in every action I make
If I can die happy, that's the chance that I take
I wish that there was a magic spell placed on me by a wizard
That would allow me to camouflage my shame and sorrow like a lizard
A voice repeats “its not too late, its never too late”
I am still unsure if I believe in destiny or fate
Unforeseen and unforgiving
Is this life, a life worth living?
On a windy day my life blew out of my hands, and far out of reach
Totally draining my blood as if my body were being sucked by a leach
This ordeal left me woozy and extremely nauseous
Listen to me when I tell you, “you have to be cautious”
For some time I have been lost in a forest in my mind
Do I stand still, or is there something beneficial to find?
If my spirit perceives, the EXIT will be natural and kind
Perhaps on my way there my heart and soul will bind
If I were to write an autobiography, I must admit I would not know what I'd say
I have wasted my life, squandering every precious breath of air, every minute, of every day
Unforeseen and unforgiving
Is this life, a life worth living?
This is a poem about knowing yourself and overcoming adversity
Life is worth living if you take time to enjoy its splendors and diversity
Believe me when I tell you that I have thought about taking the cowards way out
But when I find my soul I will congratulate myself on taking a different route
So alleviate all your worries and cares and relax for the time being
You may be trapped in a prison for your mind and you might need freeing
This is a message for everyone; from Canada, Africa, all the way to Taiwan
I sincerely hope that you find inner peace before you are gone
Follow your dreams and chase your goals until you achieve excellence no matter
what is holding you back
You don't need to escape reality by using drugs and alcohol,
just remember to keep your head up and stay on track
Unforeseen and unforgiving
This life is definitely worth living!
