Slice of Life!

You run, you juggle, and you forget to live

Chasing umpteen dreams, wanting to believe

That happiness lies in fortune, the great fillip

Living life on the edge, giving health a skip

And as years add to your weary life

You question your meaningless strife

You realize, “I live as long as I breathe, 
Soon I shall be covered with wreath!

No memories, no moments, only painful glances

Of life’s purposeless acts and  wasted chances!”
