Descending into the abyss
of fate and destiny,
we seldom realize
that we are just pawns
of infinity.

Waves in the universe,
rippling like sound,
unnoticeable,
until they hit us
and chase us like hounds.

Till we come to the conclusion:
meaningless was life.
Yet, we move on
despite the agony and strife.

Descending into the abyss
of fate and destiny,
we seldom realize
that we are just pawns
of infinity….
