I've been playing hide and seek with life.
Unluckily, I am the seeker.
I ran and ran and ran until I got tired.
I was looking for attention but didn't find it anywhere.
I've tried to look for peace until I realized that it was illusory afterall.
I look for love but no one can tell where it was.
I've tried so hard to find my importance until I figured out how trivial I am.
Playing with life was a quite mishap,
I took the path where I thought I would find the things I need,
But in a long arduous quest,
I got lost with the track.
