My Epitaph

In suede shoes and swanky suit,

Tapping iMac dutifully

Churning out many fancy charts,

Winning claps and kudos notes.

Life glides in the corporate world

Where power and title seducing.

Monthly slips get fat and fatter

Getting trapped in the comfort zone.

Never realized what I missed;

Passions, dreams and true love.

Now, time to stack them in my box

And take it to my resting place,

Where you will see an epitaph:

‘Here rests a man of wealth

Who forgot to live while he was alive.

Holding raw dreams to his chest,

Shedding tears under 6 feet down.’
