one moment.

one moment i thought i could fly,
but then i realised my wings were tattered and torn.

one moment i thought i could sing,
but then i realised no one wanted to hear my song.

one moment i thought i loved someone,
but then i realised i loved myself more.

one moment i thought i was being loved,
but then i realised it didn't last at all.

one moment i thought i found happiness,
but then i knew it wouldn't be for long.

one moment i thought i was good and kind,
but then i realised the other side of me.

one moment i thought i could dance,
but then i realised i could only perform that in my dream.

one moment i thought i had inspiration to write this poem,
but then i realised it's getting boring and i need to sleep.

meaning of poem:
i thought i could do things, i thought i had everything under control, i thought things were going just fine, i thought i thought i thought...but then i realised i was deceiving myself. i'm just nothing and i can't really do anything right, and things just go beyond my control. i call this geh kiang (hokkien - act smart).
i should stop relying on me and start casting all my worries and burdens to Jesus, for He cares for me.
