VAGUE OPTIMISM

I'm said to be pessimistic 

Rather than optimistic 



Like...

Isn't it better to expect worse 

Than constantly hoping and wanting for more ?


Questioning what if and why 

Because 

Life don't seem to go as planned 


Creating bonds with people 

Who still dies 

Or break ties 


Friendship 

Partnership 

Relationship...


All but a few to mention 

Which brings about this feeling and tension 

That traps us in a certain manner of reasoning 

Then we said to ourselves 

Oh...

There's nothing that can break this feeling 




Till we're proven wrong 

That nothing lasts long 

That life is a waste of time 

Where we fight for something hard just to get the opposite 


Really 

I have tried to look at life with a little positivity 

But life goes way beyond than we think 


It searches for our happiness in anyway 

And with a blink of an eye 

Or a snap of a finger 

Snatches it away 



Then tell me 

What's the need for all these vague optimism 

When our faith is tested non-stop without reason
