ONE DAY

One day we'll all find ourselves dying
A reality we'll all soon be facing
A question will be ask before our death
Did we live very contented or full of regret?

We will realized we were all fooled
Many false wisdom and lies we were told
We should have listened to our minds and hearts
And chase our desires from the start

Forced to conform the expectations of society
We endured all discomforts and anxieties
Our own dreams and desires were set aside
To please other people we swallowed our pride

Only to realise we were not happy
We lived a mediocere life and hyporcisy
We let all our dreams die before our eyes
We succumbed to presures and compromised

It will be too late for us to regret
We only lived once, there's no repeat
We allowed fear and discomfort to control our fate
Because in ourselves we didn't have faith.
