Purpose

I am happy with my wife

And my friends around me –

I am happy with my life,

Long and lavish, rich and rife,

And the fate that found me.

I was lucky with my mother

And my father too –

Lucky with my elder brother,

With my birthplace, or the other

Where and when and who.

I was also very ill

As a child and later –

Life was like a pepper mill,

Grinding for a better skill,

Grasping for the greater.

I was sometimes disappointed

By disloyal liars –

People, just in phases jointed,

Who with their behavior pointed

To their own desires.

I was challenged, I was fighting

First for you, then me –

All my parts felt like uniting,

I found writing quite exciting,

So I did, you see.

My existence was divided

Into life and work –

My way, your way coincided,

Hence, my discrepancy guided:

Future in the lurk.
