I've been thinking
Wondering,
A lot these days
I've been scrolling a lot
On my phone
Mindlessly,
throughout the day;
Night settles down
Settling the dust
I realise,
I've been wanting escape
Can I get an escape?
Can I get some peace?
Can I get some fresh air
That won't choke me
Why is it that I prepare for reckless heat
But end up getting stuck in a hailstorm
Why is it that the things I should do
and my remorse loves never reconcile
Why is that I have to bear the presence of the person
who stampedes my beautiful rose gardens everyday,
Why do I wait for replies
If only they end up making me feel more dejected
I just wanna take deep breaths quite often
Not hate anybody cuz that's a pain for my soul
Not be mad for wasting my time doing the stuff I really like
Be happy and satisfied for at least 3 days in a row
Listening to my favourite music without the volume that low
Laughing my heart out watching funny videos
Just not keep thinking how things can go wrong
and how everything went wrong
Not having headaches all the time
Sleeping in peace for at least 7 hrs
Not being such a good actor
and instead expressing myself
Meeting people with whom I can be myself
And just rediscover me
Why is it that I don't have an answer to this?
