Common Sense

I’m an overachiever.

I do everything perfectly, based on common sense.

My grades were good; I’m an unexceptionally quick-witted person.

Based on common sense, I get into good school.

I’m loved by teachers, students as well.

Based on common sense, I join the student council.

I’m the best in my high-school; there are many universities which accepted me unconditionally.

Based on common sense, I should just pick one and get it over with-

But my common sense was defeated by my heart, and so I began another path of life.

I picked the university my heart led me, the path where my hobbies will nurture itself.

I chose to believe in my heart.

I struggle a little to keep my grades, but I find many interesting and uncommon aspects of life.

I chose to believe in my heart.

My internship came through; a place where I had dreamt for so long, and after that I landed my first job as well.

I was glad that I stick to my heart.

After, I found the love of my life, whom I vow to cherish and love with all my heart.

And then..

The love of my life stopped calling, but I know that they are just busy.

My heart cracked a bit.

Job was not going well, every project is a mess; and Boss kept asking me to finish it faster and faster.

My heart wavered.

I chose to leave from the job; another will come soon, and I’m good at it.

My heart told me that this is the best,

but

common sense..

Well- I chose to believe my heart.

Then time crept by; I found something else to do, to learn,

but no job.

Still no message neither calls, but they’re busy, I know.

And then common sense kicked me on the head when I ran out of savings.

The love left; and the job didn’t come.

I was devastated.

I’m an overachiever.

I do everything perfectly, based on common sense.

Now I have no love, no job and no money to live.

Based on common sense..

Ooo.. this dripping liquid life is so warm.
