Is it sad?
that I am a human like you
Is it a curse?
that I can't cry when I want to
Is it a blessing?
that I am not a common soul any more
Is it right?
when I lie to myself
merely to calm my broken ego
Is it wrong?
when I tell you only truth
and you are expecting glittery lies
Is it justified?
when I can't pay the bills
I'm supposed to
Is it injustice?
when I have delicious feast
and the homeless sleep empty stomach
Is it delight?
when I'm being rewarded
for my God-gifted skills
Is it anguish?
when I think, think and think
but can't help to end the social injustice
