What's wrong?

He failed in school,
They called him a fool!

She failed in college,
They said she had no knowledge!

He failed in a race,
They doubted his pace!

She failed on stage,
They blamed her for time wastage!

He failed in dance,
They didn't give him another chance!

She failed in completing a task
Next time, they made sure not to ask!

He failed in a show
They said he doesn't know!

She failed in a movie
They said her future is gloomy!

It was the end they all felt,
Nobody saw how they dealt!

They looked for a helping hand,
But there was none who could understand!

They wished to express what they suffer,
But people only made it tougher!

Somehow once they all dared,
Only to see nobody cared!

Nobody asked them why did they cry,
Only left them with a question, why did they even try!

And it added to their pain,
Seeing people only helped for a gain!

When times put them to a test,
People only seemed to care about their interest!

Everyone was busy following their passion,
Giving up the human qualities of care and compassion!

"They are too sensitive and take things to heart"!
Everyone thought, saying this was their only part!

Nobody gave them a motivational tip,
Only to see them leave this world and say a RIP!

No wonder we are living a superficial life
And for everyone making it a strife!

Nobody wants to be so profound,
So one could hear one's inner sound!

Nobody realises what's so wrong,
while pretending themselves to be so strong!

And a time will come when they would exchange place,
Only to show everyone what they had to face!

When everyone would be willing to express,
But none would be willing to address!

When everyone would be feeling the same,
But nothing they would be able to blame!

When everyone would be facing the tide,
But none they would find by their side!

When everyone would realise what was wrong,
With the superficial life they had been living for so long!!
