Life is just a canvas of stories enshrined
But I never thought that mine
Would be a script full of flaws
Like a ship in the sea with no view of shore
Where the future is so close yet distant today
Craving for tomorrow but stuck in yesterday
I wrote and wrote and wrote
Then I realized everyone felt the same & I stopped
Every poet ponders this deeply

Most people feel like life is a race
That one has no choice but to run
Even if they don’t really want to
The smiles are no longer from their hearts
And no one can tell them apart
Because somewhere along the path
Of growing up in this crazy world
They outran that kid within
And that’s when it dawned on me
You don’t lose everyone to death
Life itself can be pretty brutal

It’s not that I don’t like the fairytales of life
But it’s the nightmares that I can relate more with
You live in your own little time loop
Recalling the moments you have lived
Knowing you can’t tap a screen
To change who you have been
So you watch it play over and over again
And it was at the end of a thousand sleepless nights
That you found out there was a million more ahead
