JUZ NOT ME...
It's about me, all about me
unable to find who's inside me
trying to discover who I am
definitely not what others think of me.
There is something which eats me everyday
thinking of that I am cheating everyone day by day
yes I know, I know I lost my chance
and did not listen to my heart's say.
I remember the days when I lived my childhood to the fullest
those are indeed my life's memories best
but long gone are those days now
today's pressure doesn't spare me a single minute of rest.
I knew not what to do
and turned out to be a hopeless fool
I could not realize what I actually wanted
thus, was influenced by everyone's view.
The decision of opting for science
hasn't yet shown any good signs
oh dear! maybe I did a big mistake
often says (sigh) my conscience.
I regret now, did not listen to bhai's word
just went on foolishly to become a part of the herd
he recognized the right potential in me
but I failed, and made a decision so absurd.
It is now that I realize what have I done
all the tension and pressure has made me go numb
it's that time when I am slowly losing my confidence
'cuz science is all about run, run and run.
All this running has made me go weak and terribly confused
the thought of the future compels me to muse
what if I fail to live up to all those expectations?
uh! I believe for that I will never be excused.
Yet for all that you people have done THANKS a lot
'cuz YOU are the ones turning me into a line from a single dot
'cuz YOU are the ones turning me into a line from a single dot
I would never wanna hurt you and for you
all I can do is give every time my best shot.
all I would say is, "pa,ma,bhai...
I too wish to touch the heights of the sky..
it's not only about sitting in a room all around with books
it's also about my freedom 'cuz I wanna fly..
I have no idea what happens next to me
whether or not I am able to face the competition successfully
but I just wish I get to do something I really like
'cuz what is being made of me is...JUZ NOT ME"..
Too good . This is the story of every student after there 10th . But At that time most of the students takes decisions in pressures and you are one if them . Though My family also wanted mee to opt for science but I was stuck to my Interests . And today I am gonna do what I wanted too do and now I will have no chance of loosing or coming back because This decision was mine and now no one will accept any kind off excuse . So my point is that Pressure is always there in every situation . And Once you choose your subject Just give your 100% & be commited with it strongly .
ReplyDeleteI am totally agree with your thought too :)
Well said .
Thank you so much for liking it..this poem was written by me when I was greatly depressed by my deteriorating performance in academics and I wanted my family to know all of it. It is just a way to let the students and their parents know that something chosen over our interests can be a real torture, my story being an example for all others.
