Slowly and peacefully the boy plods on,
He has gone a long way,
Still has a long way to go,
The reach satisfaction and understanding.
He ponders as he walks,
Why am I here?
What is my purpose?
What do I have to do?
At home everyone wants something,
"Do your homework!
Practise and study",
What for, he doesn’t know.
He wants to see the future,
What will become of him?
The only way to get there,
Is to live in the present.
