THE ROAD’S NOT TAKEN YET

 

the road’s not taken yet

a dare we should have felt 

for man’s core enemy is competition 

the most unnecessary obligation

the road’s not taken yet

thousands of arrow shot at my fishing net 

for some, overtaken feels like a battle to death

let me be, I’d rather lay wreath 

it’s life, a dangerous opium

wild and free like helium 

just like a breathe, our time is passing 

nothing is promised, none is lasting 

the journey looks smooth but stony

your death is yours alone, no crony 

although people need each other to survive 

but you need to stay alive to get out of life alive 

the road’s not taken yet 

relax, take your time to get well 

for many has tried and failed, six feet 

lots have gone with their wit 

the race is rocky as foretold 

some gets to realize this when they are old 

it’s just a destination none is destined for 

beautifully, to our shallow graves we fall 

from cradle to grave, our life is pre-planed 

you can’t bribe death with rand

the road to success’ never taken

our foolishness makes it pain-staking
