Standards Of Living Among People

By Bhargavi Dhilipkannan

One is born amongst the angels and demons,

where neither smiling nor frowning is right.

When you study, you’re a nerd when you don’t, you’re a failure,

When you eat you’re fat when you refuse, you’re a wannabe,

when you’re happy ,you have your life together when you’re sad you’re an attention seeker,

When you cry, you're week when you don’t, you’re emotionless,

when you talk, you’re talkative when you don’t, you’re taciturn,

when you read, you’re a bookworm when you don’t, you’re dumb,

when you think ahead, you’re rushing when you don’t, you’re slow,

when you’re different you’re an outcast, when you’re similar you’re a copycat,

When you go on your own way you’re a know it all, when you go along with others you’re a follower,

One is born and one is dead when people make that one dread
