that life is a mystery unknown;
a journey beset with dreadful forebodings;
a variegated landmark of discordant terrains
I was born and bred
I was cultured to reason
that life is a nutty riddle
indefinitely clouded to discern
and beyond mortals dissecting
My heyday was a nurturing
a platitude of facts of life
a catechism of what lies ahead
a baptism into realities
But my libertinage to adulthood
my transformation to real realities
pictures a world of banalities;
where sacrifice is never measured
and sycophancy ever treasured
My ontology is totally fogged
my being lethargic to things around
because the world is clouded
and forever a mystery unknown.
