Not a single second passes
Without me, thinking about my dreams
I keep worrying too much till my smile loses its remaining beam
I have met strangers, who say they have absolutely no worries
Their statement seems so blurry

Have you not experienced a small hurt, or a small pain?
Didn't you ever want to run away with shame?
Haven't you ever felt betrayed?
Have you ever made a mistake, and swayed?

These riddles kept pondering me
Their stories continued to amaze me
Seemed like I had more pain and confusions in my life
Their wishes seemed to be always obliged without a single strife

I can't count the number of times I have felt heavy at heart
I can't remember how many times I've prayed to be far apart
From the times of desolation
From the times of grief
From the times I felt so lonely, I could hardly breathe

Born lucky, they say
Their destiny supports them in every possible way
But I keep struggling
I put down all my interests and try to keep juggling
All the things I hate doing
Just to keep my loved ones happy and smiling

One day my time will come
When I get to be the luckiest one
When the sun throws my shadow behind
When nothing can stop me from being confined
dedicated to my friends, without whom i couldn't have found ME
