Its not in tranquility that I write these words,
Nor is it the humming bees or d singing birds.
With moist eyes n silent lips, trembling hands and a broken heart,
I am wit my friends, my loved ones from whom I shall soon part.
Like strangers we met, in this journey called life
But now these thoughts Oh! It cuts like a knife.
Through ups and downs with friends n foes
I prayed this road should never end
Some walked away, some swore to b there
Side by side n hand in hand
And walk with me as far as the road goes.
Some smiled and forgot, some forgot to smile
And some a helping hand did lend.
Years back when this journey dawned
Little did I know little did I guess
That through sleepy classes n shady lawns
Through last night studies n partying in the mess
In the end I shall stand where it had all started
And soon it shall be time to look beyond.
I feel so lost, lost in this lonely crowd of men,
I know not why, but time seems to stop
Or did it not and was just another wish again?
Oh why isn’t there a grain to stop
To stop the sand in the hourglass?
And why does no one try to stop
To stop the wheel of time Alas!
I hurt myself again and again
Though I knew the truth so plain so bare
As if I enjoyed this sweet pain
This enmity and hatred, this love and care.
I tried in vain to hold back time
Oh but its like a slippery fish
And that the effort is not worth a dime
I sigh to myself,” It’s just another wish…Its just, another wish…”.
