Getting crushed

Stuck in between the circle of life,

Walking our on a two edged knife.

When we don’t know where to go,

With expectations of so much overflow.

Family supporting but only for them,

But if we do what we want we will be condemn.

They expect us to live our lives their way,

We owe them everything is what they want to say.

Can’t we have our lives to ourselves sometimes,

When we can do what we want without feeling it’s a crime.

When we try to raise our voice we are always shushed,

Beneath their expectations we keep getting crushed.
