A comedy of errors

Dreams, desires, and aspirations
They seem to be just words to me today.
As I hear stories of people around me
The dictionary seems to lie to me today.

Some struck by boredom,
Some disappointed,
A few tired souls
And some minds now rusted.

The proportion of sorrows and joys vary
My share seems to be abundant with the former.
Its just a matter of time, I tell myself.
And I happen to see life laughing at me from the corner.

Expectations have died
And I've been disillusioned by life.
Be it a tragedy or a comedy of errors,
Each one of us has a different tale to tell, is what i realise.
