fading
In my entire life,
I never thought that this day will come.
I used to be the overachiever, the pride of the family.
I used to be praised because of how bright my light is
But now that I'm fading,
I can not offer anything.
I'm no longer smart enough compared to my younger self,
No longer good at the things I used to be so passionate about.
I was at the top of the class but now I'm already left behind.
What am I now?
What is my part in this family?
If I'm not something to be proud of, then what will I be?
Because no matter how hard I try
The future that was so clear became questionable.
so i always ended up asking myself...
Why can't I be as good as I was before?
