"Life"

Shading layers one after another,
Pulling up what was broken inside,
I was playing with fire,
When I least expected I got burnt

All the faces that surround me,
All the expectations I can't live up to,
My soul is a wanderer,
I never would be the same old self,

I thought that facing the obstacles
Would strengthen me, instead
I got weakened
Looking at what is in front of me,
So much joy and happiness,
I steer my tears,
As the realization reaches my mind,
That maybe I won't ever find my place in the equation called life.
