Out of all the swarms
of laughing people
there is one who has to
hide underneath a facade
just to feel secure
—it could be anyone

Out of all the swarms
of dazzling smiles
and perfect lives
—there is one who barely
gets by; staking peace
just for the sake of belonging
—it could be anyone

Out of all the swarms
of whole destinies
and assured paths
—there is one who has
no idea how to tackle
the road set out for them
without worrying about
the trivial things to survive

It could be anyone
—the person next to you
on your ride home
—the old lady on the street
smiling at you every day
as you pass by
—the friend who has never
worked a single day
in their life because
everything is handed to them
—or it could be you
or me

Out of all the swarms
of empty promises
and empathetic lies
—there are people
who has to claw their
way out of the graves
they dug for themselves
just to have somewhere
to spend the night
—it could be you
or me
—it could be anyone
