My school days
Waking up to the school alarm, a heavy heart
Dreams shattering against grades and expectations
Today’s friends, strangers by tomorrow
Searching for myself in the maze of hope
Before I knew it, I became a college student
The romance of the campus, and the weight of books
New faces, the thrill of love
Yet sleepless nights filled with post-graduation fears
Were far too common
Chasing dreams that feel too fast
Bills to pay, lingering student loans
Love feels like a puzzle, broken then mended
Searching for where to go, holding onto my fears
Writing a new page of life
Different faces, different places, yet I feel the same youthful me
Looking back on the paths I’ve walked
I just want to embrace who I am now
Life flows on this way
Now I’m a working adult, but the pressure grows
Balancing dreams and promises to keep
Building a family and a place to call home
Yet sometimes I feel so lost along the way
How did I already reach my 40s?
A whisper in my heart, "Am I on the right path?"
Regrets and memories flood my mind
As children grow up and parents grow older
Time keeps moving, with unspoken stories left behind
I stop in my tracks, and suddenly reflect
Every road I’ve walked is filled with memories
There were regrets, and plenty of tears
But everything shaped me into who I am
Back then, I didn’t know how hard it’d be
To protect everything I held dear
Fighting through tears and pain
Searching for sunlight even in the rain
Back then, I didn’t realize the value of time
Even the imperfect moments shine in my memory
The pain of growth, the little fragments of happiness
They’ve all become pieces of the picture that is me
Writing a new page of life
Different faces, different places, yet I feel the same youthful me
Looking back on the paths I’ve walked
I just want to embrace who I am now
Life flows on this way
Though the burdens change as time goes by
Love and hope always remain
Walking through joy and sorrow
I keep searching for the dawn of a brighter tomorrow
