The burden of expectations
Has always impressed me.

Maybe it just intends to motivate,
But ends up with a depressed me.
The irony of life is
Very hilarious at times–
Good days with bad ties,
And bad days leading to good vibes.

Maybe that's how life shows
Its true colors in broad daylight;
Balancing the good and bad
Through the passing days and nights.

The burden of expectations
Never fails to survive such odds.
The numbers keep piling up
And strengthen up like iron rods.
Each one being heavier than
The previous could ever be,
And maybe bury us alive
Instead of its delightful prophecy.

The burden of expectations
Has always impressed me...
