When days were meant to chirp around and live life....
I was struggling to shoulder lesser responsibilities.

When days meant only friends and fun with them all around....
I was fighting to lessen burdens, beyond my abilities.

When time was for me to desire and demand anything....
I was trying to realize how ends could meet with sureties.

When days came to relish the success and enjoy....
I was hoping to grab some happiness but there were still uncertainties.

When I was on the stage of realizing virtues like love and belonging....
I was busy helping others and for myself arranging priorities.

When I felt independent and self sufficient to decide things....
I was yet again laid back by extended responsibilities.

Its not new for me to still desire,
Its not new for me to face such twinge,
Its not new for anyone to ignore my emotions and put them on fire,
Its not new for me to console myself, sit back, watch the world and merely aspire....
