I want to live.

Expectations keep rising from your loved ones, yet there are many people waiting for you to fail, so that they can pounce on you like hungry cannibals. You are so scared of both these types, you can’t take the pressure no more. It’s a nightmare each day, to know you’re nowhere close to where you want to be. To cope up with all this is an uphill task and you want to run away from all this stress. You want to give up on your dreams and live a simpler and more sorted life. You want to enjoy the smaller things in life, those that give you joy and you want to be away from the limelight, from all that pressure to perform. But then you realise, that if there is someone who can pull it off, it’s only you. You realise it’s only a matter of time, only a phase and that you will eventually emerge stronger and victorious. So you go back and fight, fight to prove some right and some wrong. You ask yourself for some time, you postpone your want to live.
