An Endless Journey

We are all running

Some towards their destiny

Others to accomplish their goals

But we have paid a price

We have become strangers

 To our own self.

Standing tall amongst people

They feel elated

False happiness and unending successes

Twine around them

 Like poisonous snakes.

Each person is covered

With a shroud of untold lies

Their souls have lost their shine.

They do not know

Where are they going

They only know

That they have to run

Past the others.

They are lost in the

World of immense

Greed, selfish motives

They have become robots

No emotions, no concern for others.

Though moving ahead

Their destination is invisible.

Pebbles in the sand of the seashore

Some will be buried

Others will be thrown

In the water.

People come and go

Life is an endless journey.
