Life goes on

Layers after layers the tidal waves of life

come and go

Whispering a symphony of light and shade

Some of gaiety, bright and sprite

Some of gloom, low, and hallow

In all these… through

The sun peeps with its beams

And the moon plays hide-n-seek

With cloudy blanket dark!

Through light and shadow

Pain and gain

Life goes on…

Layers after layers the tidal waves of love

come and go

Playing a piano whispering tale of black and white

Some of warmth, romantic, adorable

Some cold, void, empty

The river flows…

the wind whirls …

Through highs and lows

Layers after layers tidal waves of life

come and go

Life goes on!
