Can’t have it all

You can’t have it all

Will I get an offer?

Tonight? Tomorrow?

And if I don’t, will there be sorrow?

What will my friends think if I fail?

They do in Ivy League so well…

Though- I don’t even like that course,

It wouldn’t be too great a loss.

I will still have my career,

Dream big and always steer

Towards success.

But you can’t have it all

What if I end up sorting papers,

Stamping files and serve and cater?

I need to take more time to hustle,

Refine my perfect picture puzzle.

Work hard, play less.

But you can’t have it all.

Will I be happy? Have a boyfriend?

And will someone dear hold my hand?

Guys do not put back for girls,

I am too busy to have kids;

Will not experience this bliss.

It's not enough,

I'm my own judge,

And I am never satisfied,

Whatever I do its never right,

I want it all and nothing less.

And that is why I can’t get rest.
