Alpha
Warmth is disappearing as I look around,
Moreover, watch as I leave the home that I found,
I object to this decision, God hear my sound!
I refuse to be cut from which I once was bound.
Mezzo
My home is nothing now, I cannot remember,
What sparked this ember to engage my anger?
Why do I feel as if my life is nothing but sand,
That some man can end it with the press of his hand?
I look as I feel, helpless and without control,
Outside my body is warm but inside I feel cold.
So many changes impact me I can hardly move,
Having to leave my old home yet again I do not approve.
Why must I lose everything to try and regain it back?
Is there something wrong with me? What do I lack?
I once crawled, walked, but now I must run,
To try and keep up with the life of my son.
I thought retirement was easy, meant you were done,
I have a remaining stretch to go though, last one.
Omega
Once proud and tall reduced to a foreign figure,
The presence of my old strength inside me still lingers.
God cursed my life, from the birth until my death,
He made sure I had pain for every single breath.
The changes in my body and mind cursed many lives,
People don’t know how many times I wished I’d die.
But when it comes to meet him, I will say I loved it,
That I cherished every day, perhaps every minute.
In the end I question my self, what really is time?
Is it the essence of our existence, or the existence of our mind?
