I have always been in a hurry
hurry to wear pants
leave those crisp white shorts
and kick those white canvas sneakers away
In a hurry to complete school
Hurry to reach somewhere
Without even knowing where
Hurried in making friendships
Hurried in breaking them
Hurried in choosing career
Hurried in shaping it
All those days spent in bed
without a second thought
All those times wasted
I never learnt, I guess
And then I hurried some more
Hurried in falling in love
Hurried in falling out of it
But when the moment arose
didn’t hurry to come out of it
Hurried in giving up
On things, on people, on family
But somethings just stood by
I think they considered my foolishness
to throw things away, easily
Wonder ! Why am I so worried ?
Why am I so lost?
Always trying to control uncontrollables
and worrying when I fail
I thought I should quit on things
things that hold me back
all the worrying, controlling
unforgiving, not letting go
I wish, I could start, afresh
With nothing but a clean slate
So I took a fall
In not so cynical rain
and I hurt my butt
And guess,
Who’s laughing now !!
