I woke up this morning to the forever intimidating sun,

The day looked nothing like fun

Unlike every morning, where I follow my routine,

Today I started to wonder before I could clean

Each day starts with the struggle of mustering up the courage to leave the bed,

With the fear that ” I might get late” in my head

And when I finally reach my workplace,

I spend my time doing things that I hate

After cribbing all day long about how I hate my life,

I reach home and regret my choices of strife

In this never-ending cycle of confusion and regret,

I see my dreams and beliefs falling apart, this is as far as it gets

I fail to identify myself as anybody who exists,

I feel I’m mediocre and here starts the list

I start thinking …

Am I joke which is borderline funny?

Funny enough to make you smile but you fail to laugh

Or maybe I’m the b grade that average students get

Just enough for saving them from debt

I’m that feeling between over and underconfidence

The apt amount to stand up for me

Probably that friend in the group whose existence doesn’t matter

The one who listens to others chatter

I’m those unspoken feelings that sink in,

And live with you till you commit a sin

I’m just another three-leafed clover,

Envying the one In a million four leafed ones

One of those engineers who hate the word science,

Sick of practicality and the face of Einstein

I think I’m just another unfamiliar face in the crowd,

A somebody living life on pre-existing terms and feeling proud

This morning, I realize that I lack identity in my own eyes,

Let alone the world and the heavenly sky

I want to discover who the hell am I,

Get stuck on crossroads and begin to try

Very soon I need to find where I belong,

For life ends fast just like a three-minute song.
