life

A train pacing its way,
The wind blowing past,
The horses galloping beside.
And in sat a boy wondering,
Looking at the stars and whispering,
Pouring out his heartiest desires.

Life is a rollercoaster, a daunting yet exhilarating ride,
But it is up to us whether we laugh or shut our eyes,
Whether we scream in sheer terror or throw our hands up in the air,
Life is just a carnival, life is a crowded fair.

Pondering over the whirl of issues
We stop considering our wearing tissues.
The tired eyelids demand of sleep
But all we do is weep
Over the trivial matters that cause us grief.
