Dear life,
I wish I could figure you out
know what you're thinking
know what you're up to.
Are you side-eyeing me with a mocking smile,
measuring my each step
only to knock me down later and watch me fall?
Or are you secretly laying down stones for me to step on to and not let me drown?

I've heard you being called by a thousand names
But never have I known your true nature.
Some days you scream inside my ears so loud
making me deaf to all frivolties.
And some days you hide behind dark corners so well
making me feel blind to all my fortunes.

So generous yet so cruel
An angel with demons' wings
Sometimes I get so tired of this life
but other times I can't get enough of it.
