everywhere i turn
seems like all i see
everyone i meet
seems like all i hear
every time i breathe
seems like all i inhale
are EXPECTATIONS
folly it was mine to imagine
all of 'em were for me by design
hobby it has become mine to deject
all of 'em who from me did expect
why
why now
why them
why this
why ME
if i need to be
humbled
belittled
ruffled
spare the ones around me
is it ‘cz that’s what hits me hard
i am
humbled
belittled
ruffled
now spare the ones around me
i have been hit very hard
the burden of unfulfilled expectations
it weighs me down
it strains my brow
it pains my vow
expect not and fulfil nothing
will it only be a hazy dream
in expectation of no more expectations
i rest to dream that hazy dream.
