THE DAY I BECAME A MAN

THE DAY I BECAME A MAN


“Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction ”— Albert Einstein


Everyone used to say itl happen,
I laughed at them and said its popular fashion.
People have put names and sections,
It’s actually yourself self which is the definition,

The dream world was a fairy tail,
It made me feel as if I am invincibly royale,
Every morning, every evening,
Every night, and again when it was bright.

I used to fly and stay in a different place,
Much further away than this space,
It was heaven, it was passion,
What kept me there was vocation,

Before I realised it’s a vicious circle that’s pulling me in,
It’s something bad, it’s a sin.
People who are close were running away,
Materialistic things I realised was making them stay

That day I promised myself………..
I have to do something which will make all this worth,
It’s the day I walked that path,
To become a man from a lad,

In the moon light I realised,
Everything is so dark, I cried,
I fail to understand, why everything’s bleak,
But that’s when its time you go into a deep sleep.

A time would come when I shall forget everything,
Forgive you for all this you did,
Till then remember there’s someone there,
Whose saying it will ‘all come around one day’.
