On a Quest-Finding Happiness

We forget us, We forget life, We forget to rest and take a look behind, We forget to smile, We forget to live while running the race of social comparison of our lives.

On a Quest-Finding Happiness

By the ocean

From the waves

Find happiness

the water says

Sapphire moonlight

Ravishing stars

We're locked behind

the social comparison bars.

Laughing and crying

We hide it all

In our mourns

our ego burns it all.

On a quest we're on

everyday.

To know oneself

in any way.

On a quest we're on

everyday

To find happiness

some day.

Regrets and Dissatisfaction

We have it all.

But happiness in us

is instilled, and awaits for a call.

A busy schedule

A distorted fate

Everything we blame

Lost in our self debate.

On the quest of life

Our sight just sees the outside

We forget ourselves

We forget to be happy inside.

Are we never over

this social comparison?

No one is to blame

Look inside,

We are the reason for our self destruction.

There are many reasons to

smile, to be euphoric and content.

Feel blessed and fortunate

Don't whine on life that's already spent.
