Venture

Shfaa Abbasi 2003 (Sharjah)

Lyric
Sitting under a tree
Wondering ways to be free

Tired of all tensions
Looking for a peaceful mansion

Wouldn't it be good for once
To live a peaceful life just once

But then I wonder
Is it peace that I fall under?

Wouldn't peace be boring?
Making me sleep snoring?

I guess at last it's adventure
Which would be a venture

Venture that would last long life
Giving me new experience of life

About this poem

How a person hopes for peace but then realizes that they might eventually get bored just by having peace and we come to know humans really can't be pleased no matter what they get
