Poem
I remember the day I stepped in school Initially I was a freakishly absurd fool Running around with everything i got my hands on Every tool My parents got angry, teachers felt I wasn't good enough To prove them wrong i tried to act like a sincere kid Noticed that clever guy properly, tried to become exactly like Sid Focused, really hard i studied I started topping in class now As i expected, elders suddenly started loving me somehow I just started enjoying this fame and wow When I noticed that kids around me started hating me somehow I tried to ask them its reason like a fool What's the matter? You are not COOL ! Then i tried to combine both selves Tried to be better than today, tried to improve myself Tried to be good at play and studies, burdened myself During the same time a girl walked in We became friends and i felt like god have forgiven all my sins But then again i had forgotten the basic rule I was neither 'enough' nor 'good' Life change and me along with it Confident and fit Improved my every bit Still this world saw a flaw, being talkative Friendships broke & one more 'No' came along with it I saw everything changing but one thing never changed about me I wanted every one else to be happy My own pain I couldn't see I helped them all to be their greatest self But in the process I didn't notice myself I was being used away and then was treated dry Every one around me said a in lie That to them i mattered The lie which made my heart shatter I wonder what will happen when i die Will they even shed a single tear or care to cry? But now i will try to be me Will try to keep my chin up Because no matter what i do To this world I'll never be enough
