COMPLACENT!!

Complacent!!

My overconfidence and complacency,
It has ruined me completely,
I always thought things would be done,
Quite easily,
All battles would be won,
Quite easily,
But I was wrong,
Oh so terribly wrong,

Eventually I was the only one,
Left behind, as
All my peers reached their summit,
I always thought I was the best,
This proved to be my mistake biggest,
Overconfidence did me in,
And I lost everything I had,
And ended up becoming totally mad

I was in such a strong position,
I had everything I wanted,
I had everything I desired,
But I kept living on the past laurels,
As eventually all that I had,
Disappeared all of a sudden,
And I was eventually left with,
A huge debt and a gigantic burden

My friends tried hard,
To improve me somewhat,
They told me to work harder,
But I never did bother,
My family tried hard,
To bring me back to earth,
But I never considered their advice,
To be of any worth

I have realized one thing,
In this world there are thousands,
Who are superior,
There’s no place for complacency here,
There’s no use of arrogance here,
Coz this world will bite you then,
Coz this world will torment you then,
And you’ll be left all alone,
Drenched in pain, cursing your own self

I have learnt it the hard way,
I have let my own life swirl and sway,
My overconfidence and complacency,
It has ruined me completely,
I thought things would be done,
Quite easily,
All battles would be won,
Quite easily,
But I was wrong,
Oh so terribly wrong,

But now I’ll fight back,
I have learnt my lesson,
I’ll find my way,
I still have the hunger,
To be a conqueror,
I’ll work harder,
And eventually be a frontrunner,
I’ll eventually be a winner…
