Is it fair?
The feeling of not being equal
Is it true?
The notion of some having it easier
Maybe it’s true
That some feel things stronger
Maybe it’s the case
That some thoughts are harder
Constantly conflicted
in not wanting to be selfish
But constantly aware
of needing to focus on one’s life
Once I focus on my mind
and focus on myself
Will things become easier?
Make sense – will they?
Perhaps clarity only comes
into one’s awareness
Once one stops the worry
and the hyperbolic comparisons
And maybe it is true
That we exist on different planes
Separate levels of existence
Even if the description’s pretentious
I conclude
with the perception
That experiences differ
Some thoughts feel crippling!
While others are smiling
I conclude
by accepting
That our emotional lives differ
Some feel conflicted!
While others – at peace.
