Tribulation

You call it life; I cut it down to simplicity 
Life is a cycle, adventures in futility 

Amidst recurring lapses of absolute depression 
Comes a few moments without tribulation 

For some the ignorance is truly blissful 
Fool themselves into thinking life isn't so dismal 

Cycle of hopeless future repeating a desolate past 
Cruel truth of life the good times never last.
