Too Little Too Much

 Bored in the train, a million thoughts shoving me in the drain,

A routine journey to earn money, coming back from work feeling all sorts of lethargic,

Bored in the train, they don’t shower in the morning, yet they look at me condescendingly,

Going back to work, hoping everything would go accordingly,

I said to myself,

do not think of the reality but think of the possibilities,

All in all, you’re healthy and for what it’s worth you ain’t jobless and a parasite,

This acceptance feels almost forced but almost always leaves me disgraced,

I think about myself and it’s all I disdain,

Strong, smart, rich, fit, white, handsome, big houses, big cars and a big position.

All that society loves, accepts and respects.

All that I am not...

All in all, some are condemned to be poor small men?

It pains me to think of all the things I could’ve given my mom

We are growing old together and I have to live knowing how little I am & what little I have

I better stop,

I don’t want to sound ungrateful

Despite of how little I am

Aware that I can lose even more than what little I already have.
