Blessed

Blessed are those who fall asleep as soon as they rest their heads

Without giving a second thought, they can make any place their comfy cozy bed

They are naïve, satisfied, or maybe they simply don’t care

I think they have accepted the fact that life is never fair.

They calmly can take a nap at anytime

They have the heart of a child, free from any worries, impurity or crime

And here I am lying awake every single night

Engulfed by the constant thoughts of ‘What might…’

Twisting and turning in order to figure out the way

To make tomorrow better than yesterday.

I am not one among those contented souls

I am always thinking about how I am going to achieve my unrealistic seeming goals

I strive to be awake in reality I think

That’s the reason I always hesitate to catch a wink

Call me an opportunist or over-ambitious if you want

But I’ll always dream big regardless of anyone’s taunts

Then I guess I am the one who is truly blessed

Since my dreams are so huge that I simply cannot rest…
