Speck of Dust

By Ananya Mehta

In a world so big, so full of dreams,
I feel like I don’t quite belong, it seems.
Just a tiny speck, floating by,
Wondering where, wondering why.

I step into lives, but do I stay?
Or am I just passing, fading away?
I don’t bring sunshine, I don’t bring cheer,
Just a quiet shadow, always near.

I try to find where I should be,
A place that feels like home to me.
But till then, I drift, I roam,
Never quite settling, never my own.

So if one day, I disappear,
Would anyone notice? Would anyone care?
Maybe I’m just a speck of dust,
Lost in the wind, like all of us.
