LIFE...as we see it!

Every morn i step out of my house

Oh! Its a beautiful day...

with faces happy and gay!!

Their lives seem so perfect,
with ease, they embrace victories everyday

Some get lucky with a job promotion..

others have just fallen into a love relation...

That girl round the corner's ever smiling..

The guy next door.. ever inspiring!!

Sometimes i wonder why i feel so worn out?

why do i picture my problems like a mount?

They're all chirpy,all so curious

I keep pondering over and over..

Why (am I) so serious??

Some times I feel I'm the only one fighting my fears and my sorrows..

but that's LIFE!.. as we see it..

Who knew that the secret behind that girl's smile is her ailing mother's only hope

Who knew, when alone how much she'd sob!

Those faces are indeed happy,

But they're sometimes just masks..

that each one of them wears 

To keep hidden ..their darker side

They all have their set of fears...

And I'm not alone, at the end of the day

LIFE!! .. they all picture... just the same way!! 

 *********************************************************************************

And then i see the silver lining shining behind the dark cloud

That moment on 

I gather my courage all

All ready to face it out..

Announce my happiness loud

Back I am with a bang..

on the track where I feel light again...

What this makes me realize is the there's no good no bad, 

no loss no gain..

We're happy , we're sad

as we want it to be

No matter what we go through,

There's always a brighter side to the dim

All we need .. is a li'l change in the paradigm!!

innocence misinterpreted

he chitters he chatters

he loves to play all day long

but friends he has who come for their own needs

when he needs them.. they're all gone..

what must be the tumult going on inside him

for he's on the receiving end when it comes to being mean..

mother keeps scolding..bro's always frustrated..

father's like an ATM to him., and nothing more than that...

who's there to share his fears and sorrows burried deep inside..
or even his happiness and excitement,

to give him any insight??

he grows cranky..he behaves like a li'l kid

he feigns his fears with his careless attitude and mindless witt...

he's god gifted, has abundance of talents

he's kind with the purest of heart and spirits..

then why is he abandoned?

just because he's a li'l different??..

well.. we all are that!!

why do they look only for his mistakes

and never his accomplishments, gim him a pat??

whom shall the blame be put on for all that he's going through...

is the world really so cruel or is it karma that he's put through??

remember what love and patience can create

is somebody listening at all??

are you willing to embrace em all?

for this 15 year old .. who doesn't want to grow up 'coz he's scared of the world 

and its 'worldly' ways!!
