Answer me!
Where would you go?,
when the very life you chase,
Suddenly… betrayed you?


On the roads you used to run on,
now you can’t take a step.
The hospital bed is your home now,
The window; your eyes to the world.


Can’t you see it yet?
The time you’ve been breathing
is catching up to you.


I hope somewhere down the life
you led,
You found your meaning
of success.


And if you didn’t, just tell yourself
It’s okay.
It’s alright..


What more can you say,
anyway?
