The Weirdness of the Situation
 by Hanchi (hanchi@whiteknights.zzn.com)

If all the problems in this world
Would directly fall on me
I'd take some time solving them
As easy as they might be.

But if someone also suffers
A problem similar to mine
They come to me and ask for help.
And I can help them in a short time.

But going back to my problems
Solving seems so hard to do.
These problems of mine are way too hard
To solve for me and you.

I studied all my problems
Again and again and again.
And wondered if they'll ever be solved
By someone who really can.

The weirdness of the situation
May change after a long time
Cause why can I solve others' problems
When I can't even solve mine?
