Absurd Life

By Joshua A. Apolonio

So bad and I think this is strange;

Life is absurd like I’m in a cage.

As I grow and number adds to my age

In my book of life comes another page.

Ridiculous, strange life this is;

I’ve been tired and gloomy, no more bliss.

Nice life has given, why had come to this?

Come to me, I need your hug and kiss.

I’m living well but why like I’m dead?

Should be happy, but here, exhausted.

Go and carry on, told by my head.

But still worn-out, my heart just has said.

I’m living, but inside, I’m dying.

Thanks to the life, but I’m tired living.

Ready to end what I am having;

Absurd life this is, now I’ll be fading.
