Waking up the next morning

Only realising that you are not

Supposed to be here

But here you are

Opening your eyes the next morning

Hoping to see a new Dawn

Instead seeing the sky adorned

With darkness

Life is full of unfulfilled

Expectations

Expectations that leaves us

Disappointed and full of doubts

Trying to do your best

Only to find out that your best is just not

Enough

Shedding tears for what was lost

Instead of rejoicing for what you have gained

Life is full of rollercoasters

Putting your time,sweat and energy

In something that will be stolen

Feeling guilty of something you can’t change

Waking up every hoping for something new

Instead of creating the upgraded version of yourself

Adoring something that is not

worthy of your love
