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
