Transient Life

Transient and translucent is this imagery of life,
Looming in the trajectory of time,
Vivid and stark in essence,
Yet frigid and dwindling in appearance,
It always seems against the odds,
This fight for nirvana knows no bounds,
So is this life just an illusion,
Merging into the vortex of parallel visions,
Fishing for adventure and enlightenment some of the times,
And salient and frigid at other times,
Looking into our lives and the worlds we live in,
Truth it seems can be farther from that within,
For as we get closer to the core,
We realize how farther away we are from it,
And in all that dual reality,
is the understanding that life is truly transient,
And that we are just the vehicles of choices,
Waiting to be discovered and burnt down as deemed fit,
And the so the process continues,
Till we reach the end of this cycle of existence.
