i.
When you told me life was hard
You said it was like
Trying to catch water
With your bare hands
And I thought
You are the water droplets
In a place where it never rains

ii.
When you told me
You would rather hibernate
And take a nap from life
I thought
You are the sleep
That eludes me
As I go from falling asleep
To wide awake
Within a matter of seconds
Because when you're here
I would rather be awake

iii.
When you're down
Looking through a pessimistic lens
Of a glass only half full
I drink all the water
Getting rid of the problem
And I would gladly drive
The karma bus
To show you how much worse it can get

iv.
I've heard your sob story
Moans and complaints
A million and one times
But not once have I seen you
Trying to change

v.
See the beauty in life
And capture it
Don't expect anything
And you won't take anything for granted
What you deem as an ordeal
Could be an adventure
