Jugglers

Think of it for a moment
We are all jugglers, aren’t we?
Always juggling problems throughout life
With no option at all to break free

There’s someone out there somewhere
Crippled with a massive debt
There’s someone else also somewhere
Reeling through the H1B visa bet

There’s someone out there somewhere
Recovering from a painful breakup
There’s someone out there somewhere
Struggling to assemble things for his startup

There’s someone out there with a smiling face
Attempting to cover up the suffering from depression
There’s someone out there who is insanely stressed
About cracking the next important examination

There’s someone out there somewhere
Battling problems related to health
There’s someone out there somewhere
Fighting to stay away from death

There’s someone out there somewhere
Trying to keep an eye on their loved one
There’s someone out there questioning themselves
Because they are appreciated by none

There’s someone out there struggling to get in touch
With her family because of a government crackdown
There’s someone out there desperately trying
Not to have any kind of breakdown

There’s someone out there who built something
Only to see it get abandoned some day
There’s someone out there having invested time
On someone who was never meant to stay

There’s someone out there hoping
For a job that is well paid and stable
There’s someone out there struggling
To get a promotion despite proving to be capable

There’s someone out there somewhere
Always living in a world of self-doubt
There’s someone out there asking himself
If he is worthy enough to ask this other girl out

We all juggle multiple problems
And many around get entertained by us
Yet we continue to juggle these problems
Without creating any kind of fuss

Think of it for a moment again
We are all jugglers, aren’t we?
Always juggling problems throughout life
With no option at all to break free
