Today, We All Need to Know

We all need to know,

We're not the only one who failed:

Not just once, but multiple times

Again and again.

Those smiles and pictures we see on the screen

Are only trailers of the entire film

No one could really take pictures with sunken eyes,

But perhaps now these stories are needed to understand disguise

A moment could make us feel that we failed

And may leave us thinking there's nothing that we gained

We could have failed in a particular dream

But that couldn't be true for our entire being

Even if we think that we've terribly lost,

Here is the good news, it can't get any worst

Let's start it over, begin it from scratch

We could paint new dreams on a fresh canvas

So what if the painting turned out different than we wished

We've got the opportunity to draw it adversely with a twist

If it still doesn't work, paint it white again and begin

Who knows, how many layers the most beautiful canvas holds underneath.

This piece of canvas belongs to our efforts and care

Colors in it are still quite worth, unique to us and our flair

Though secret admirers couldn't come and praise every time

But, they are still around watching our painting with a loving smile

We all need to know

That we are not alone;

Everyone has traveled on the same road

It's just that it's not known.
