Do You Find Life's A Battle
Do you find life's a battle a hard uphill fight
And nothing you do for you seems to go right
But many more like you in the big World out there
For battlers as we know have never been rare.
Do you find with little money few you do wish to know
But when you were much wealthier a few years ago
With each passing day your friends did multiply
Why your once friends ignore you now you must know why.
Do you wonder about your neighbour the fellow next door
He was a good mate of your's but that was before
The company directors to manager him did promote
He has changed since he became one worthy of note.
Your financial affairs in a terrible mess
Which is causing you hardship and far too much stress
And one might say you've found out in the hard way
That money is quite important despite what some may say.

Do You Sometimes
Do you sometimes wonder what life's all about
And your worth as a person do you often doubt?
You are not alone in feeling this way
Just one of the millions in the World of today.
Though in public self doubt you do never express
Do you secretly feel down at your lack of success?
You are not alone people like you not rare
In a Human World where many grow poorer for every new millionaire.
At your lack of success do you feel depressed
That you have been a failure though you did try your best?
To become a high achiever you did not succeed
The stories of the unsuccessful are not written to read.
Yet one true fact of life and facts never lie
Is that the haves like the have nots are all born to die
And success is not relevant where dead people lay
Though many may disagree with what I do say.

Does It Matter That Much At All
Does it matter that much at all
If your dreams are big or small
Anonymity as well as fame
To you one one day will be the same
Since one day we have got to die
Human immortality seems based on a lie
With what I say few may agree
But this is how life seems to me
And what is success anyway?
The wise one has been known to say
That it is contentment of mind
A rare gift amongst Humankind
The happy one whistle and sing
His gift of joy is a marvellous thing.

Does The Soul Live On
Some claim the human soul lives forever who knows perhaps that well might be
That at time of death the soul leaves the body the body bound for a cemetery
The soul lives in another body though many does not see it that way
Those who believe in a paradise beyond the sky for eternal happiness pray
I've never had an epiphany or out of body experience so of such things I cannot claim to know
But when I ask myself does the soul live forever the answer is who knows maybe so
But I do truly believe in karma to such a belief I relate
For karma it is truly Universal from life we reap what we create
And as for the soul we all have one but whether the soul too does die
That is something I wish I could answer a question for one more enlightened than I
We are not meant to live forever we are mere mortals after all
Sometime to the scythe of the Reaper all air breathing life forms must fall
And death is a relief for many of their life problems they are set free
But does the soul live on forever that is too big a question for me?
