Sometimes

Sometimes, a thought flashes across my mind,

Where do we belong or to which kind?

Sometimes, I feel this life is not enough,

And growing up in this world is really tough.

Sometimes, I wonder how would it be,

To be lost in a jungle or at sea.

Sometimes the happiness keeps me at bay,

But some other times are not so gay.

Sometimes the daily chores tell me I am alive,

But quite often I feel trapped in a hive.

Sometimes my loved ones care for me so much,

That I begin to wonder do I indeed deserve this much.

Sometimes I like to tread on difficult paths,

And not care much about the anger and the wraths.

Sometimes I feel because I believe in myself,

My life paves its road smooth all by itself.

Sometimes I just want to thank God,

For protecting me always like a pea in a pod!
