LIFE IS AN ILLUSION

Life is an illusion – life is unreal,

A bleary image of something undefined.

Life is a dream, a cloudy mirage

Of what we wish to make of it.

Life is a picture envisioned,

A perfect blend of colours

That can´t go wrong.

Life is an unrealistic journey, its end

No one can tell;

Life is a tall tale, forged

Like knotted flax fibre.

Life is a board game, and we,

Its stereotypical figures

With no choice but to move uncertain,

Our only manual, the guide of hope.

Life is a game without a cheat,

With an end, to win or lose.
