Waking up is not voluntary
Nor breathing is not granted willy nilly
Like dew all can drift
Your carcase from the ground will not lift
...
As my words fly out my larynx
I never knew they have got a body
When I thought there is no fix-
They created a man with a body
...
When things are hard
When you are totally confused
All your relatives agree to diverge from you
When all that you eat is tasteless

Your dreams are always hefty
