The Inner Child
The Inner Child
Hey, listen! When did you
Touch me, the child within you
Carefree, innocent, simple and pure
Even years after years when you grew.
You developed certain ways of discipline
But I still love rainbow colors, butterfly
Jumping in ponds, flying kites, and paper boats
I wonder within you why should I die!
Hey! I am kind, I am polite as well
A little sensible, ut also a little tricky
I would never hide myself
Had it not been the affair worldly!
Oh! You become conscious
To go by-laws, rules, regulations
And you forget to laugh, giggle
As you get burned by social obligations.
You lose your happiness
To those worldly affairs
You tag yourself with certain essentials
That is nothing but materialistic pleasures.
You forget to get silly as
You don’t want to be judged wrong
With Fear, negativity, masked faces all around
You have forgotten to sing” To be Happy” song.
Come touch me again for once
I bet you will be amazed
As l completely feel apart
For your sacrifices, you are least praised.
Have a look into the mirror!
Who and What do you see?
I am there with you in your breath, in blood
The traits in one soul, you and me.
Let us together find that cheap toy again
Run after those butterflies
Make kites, boats, swing on swings
Live a day away from worldly lies.
Let us do every impossible act
Of the world, full of confusions
Keep aside the norms, the rules, the society
Let us be “US” without calculating conclusions.
Today I tap your heart's door
Hear me, in that silence, I am a sincere knock
Put all your soul within me
For some time with me, let you rock.
Don’t be bothered about being called,
“ You are an adult, you have lost your mind:
Listen to your heart, browse your mind
Colored birds, green blends, never change their kind.
O, Dude! Focus on the whole world around
I am there with you in every stage
Keep me alive, keep me by your side
The miserable world will never look like a cage.
I may be a child within you
With least maturity, with so little importance,
But hey Dude! Spend some of your regular hours with me
To live a real-life, With me in accordance.
I promise I will always
Love you for whatever you do
My whole endeavor is to see you
Merry everything that you do...
