A struggle for life, To live, to survive. Every ragged breath, Decreases chance to stay alive. Too many gasps, A fish starved of water. Written off for certain death, A cow; bred for slaughter.

It's Only A Bit Of Spilt Milk.

Crying over spilt milk, What is the use. Some point it's going to happen, It's not the hangman's noose. A wasted substance, Wasted tears. Nobody cares, Nobody fears. Spilt milk, It's just your life.
