I wish if life was still as easy as the ABC
But that can’t be done as I can see
We were so small and childish
With unoccupied mind and so boyish
Playing, watching TV, and going to school
That was regarded so cool
We grew up to find out that life is so complicated
And most of the time it’s terribly unfair!
We have to be aware of people who hide their real faces
And attack us in different places
True friends are found in imaginary stories
Few or none can be depended on
Each day, we learn a new lesson
That teaches us how to listen
To our mind before our heart
To feel pain when we depart
But life goes on…
And we always try to hold on
To continue living … In a world where there is no living
It’s no more the ABC
I was trying to be
Definitely, nothing but me!
