A friend of yours…

You know them since way too long

That makes the bond way too strong

There is not a day,

When you don’t think about them

Everyday there is,

Something that reminds you of them

Every time there is,

Something that concerns them, which concerns you too

There had been times when,

They needed a shoulder and you had one

They needed an open ear and you had two

They needed a pair of hands and you had a pair

And when you are lost and helpless

Deep with in the woods

When you can’t even shout out loud

For the fear of being hunted down

Not knowing which way is out

All they yearn for is their graceful exit

No my friend this ain’t your lover am talking about

This is just a friend of yours…

Anticipate

We all anticipate

We all expect

We all dream

We all plan

And suddenly when it all falls down,

Like a castle of cards

We search for answers

We blame it on fate

We blame it on others

Only to forget,

The root cause of it all

That we anticipated

That we expected

That we dreamt

And that we planned,

A bit too much

Based on things uncertain…

Let Go…

When I was born

I let go of my safety

As I grew up

I let go of my childish innocence

When I reached my teenage

I had to let go of many friends

As I knew that I can’t hang on to them forever

Then came a day when,

I had to let go of my parents and my home

In search of my own existence

Then came days when,

I had to give up my freedom,

In pursuit of something that won’t buy me what I lost

In the middle of it all this came someone

Who plunged in too deep to the bottomless pit

I now dread that it might be about time

To let go of that special someone too…
