LAST RESORT

 

they say time is a great healer 

but a lousy executioner

step by step we age all the way 

till we can no longer go outside to play

on our palms are inscribed “M M”

meaning Memeto Mori “remember you shall die”

the last resort we cannot escape from 

the most beautiful moment we all shall reform 

hopelessness and despair are cronies 

love and hate are just fallacies 

the more we live, the more we create 

pain, anguish and suffering when we mate 

our pride is in nothing but shame 

lust and obsession we cannot tame 

seeing is believing they say 

consequences of karma, we all must pay 

our words carries thorns when uttered 

piercing minds and stabbing hearts in slaughter 

there’s no messiah coming, no one to save you 

if you believe, you’re just a contemporary fool

we adjust to the pain surrounding us 

time and tides overshadows us by force 

we are the weakest in the food chain 

but we think we are wisest which is insane 

time weakens us all

in no time, we all bite the dust 

been alive only amounts to pain, tragedy and sorrows 

death, our last resort to happiness
