LIFE IN A SPLIT SECOND

We always think the worst is going to happen
We always think that we deserve the best

Everything goes out the window
When we love someone

We expect everything
What do we do in return?

We want too much
We complain too much

Life is full of desires and headaches
We love and hate in a split second

We contain ourselves sometimes
Sometimes we lose control
Self respect
Dignity

We are who we are
We don't really know either.
