That giant wheel of life grinds around us Sometimes it's sweet or so sour. A meld of habitual habits A mixture of ash amidst flour. Concoction of humour in sadness Of chuckles in midst of the tears, Of ingratitudes greatest propensity In stealing those yesterday years. I guess there's good in the badness, I suppose there's light in the dark But the factor that burns In the hope my mind yearns Is that bitterness drowns the remark.
