Praises showered and
compliments received
do makes you feel good
but with them
comes expectations
which are so huge
greater the expectations from you
higher the way you are thought of
but when things are down and out
it seems a hard burden to carry on
why i have to always succeed
why can't i fail
this life ship is mine
let it free to sail
why i have to be always good
why can't i be bad
sometimes its too much to handle
where is the freedom i once had
everyone around me
please would you tell
when can i expect you all
to be without expectations.....
