Mediocre

Do you need to look for motivation when you have none?
What if you don't want to be "the one"?

Is reaching the top all that matters?
What if you don't care if your dreams are shattered?
Isn't an aimless life, a life still?
Either ways,
Would you get to live the life you will?
Or you see yourself die paying bills?

Can the measure of success be redefined?
Why leave your competition behind?
Can greatness take a backseat for a gentle heart to unwind?
Can beauty standards be a bit more kind?
In a world of thick skulls with skin-deep minds,
Is the key to happiness what we really need to find?

Who says sadness doesn't give peace?
Ask a lover holding on to memories.
Is moving on always the right choice?
Why not give your solitude a voice?

I have learned to grieve, shed a tear,
Help if I can, or send a prayer.
Rest if I must,
No compulsion to be in full gear.
Mediocre as it may be,
It made life easy to persevere.
