To be alive and dying seems ironic,

but many folks experience the emotions

of futility on a regular basis,

The minds may have big plans and ideas,

but the souls have grown weary and tired

from the fights of life,

The feelings of aliveness, while slowly

perishing and disintegrating into an abyss,

leaves the spirits powerless and minds

struggling till the bitter end to survive

burials while signs of life still exist.
