LIFE


When I was young, like a doll
I was one among them
Laughing, crying, jumping and nodding
As commanded….

The world around me was too big
and too complicated
to understand for me

it was just a kaleidoscope
with a multitude of colors
changing shapes and forms

The people around me were loving
Laughing, caring and doing something
To make me happy

When I grown up little , the world around
Me too grown up, bigger than me..
my confusion multiplied and the
Complications increased

There were people around me not
To make me laugh but to tell me what
Is to be done and what not….
I was not happy and wanted to
go back To my childhood…..

When I was in my teen, I was happy
To see the world around and the
Things I can do..I was not worried
About those around me and their
chanting the things to do and not
To do…

I did what I like and did not do what
Others told me to do…

I wanted to make the world to
Kneel in front of me and to become
A knight to conquer them all

My dreams were a chariot with
Seven horses and there was no
Limit or territory which I cannot traverse

My imaginations were a magic bowl
With my mind as the gene and there
Was nothing which I could not do

When I was old, thinking about my past
Made me laugh which filled my eyes
With tears, not of joy…
But I finally realised that, what a
Fool I was from the beginning.
