Together in all our loneliness,And yet separated by it..
I lie here thinking thoughts, wondering.
Confused and bewildered like a tenth grader.
What is it that i like and like-not..
What is it that i want and want-not.
Years from now..
Running in the maze.Stuck in the rat race.
Will i be half as happy as i was at five?
Standing on the doors of a moving train.
With my Father's hand on my shoulders.
Holding me. Strong and firm.
Will i be half as happy as my ten year old self?
Spending hot summer nights.
Outside of my house.
Looking at the glorious moon in the glorious sky.
Will be half as happy as a teenager?
With cold wind biting into my face.
Riding my 'Miss India' through the amazing slopes.
On cold wintry mornings.
Will i be half as happy as a collegeian?
With no sense of urgency.
Happy in a sense of purposelessness
Just being there and enjoying it.
Will i be half as happy as i am now?
Acknowledging the smallest of happiness.
Lost and bewildered.
Trying to see and failing. But still trying.
Asking and yet not knowing..Will i? Will i?
