when we first open our eyes
there are a lot of people around
people there are happy just
to hear your crying sound
then you are taken to your home
where everyone brings you new things
you wake up on your own and
sleep when to you your mother sings
now its time they want to listen
broken words that you speak
everyone wants to take care of you
because you are so fragile and weak
so after few more months
you stand up and try your leg
at that time wants to see you walk
for that they even beg
3 years pass and you become
more active and start causing trouble
and your parents start worrying
they secure the place double
its time for first interview
at a place they call school
you enter the building and
see a playground and you become fooled
you think your parents brought you
to a new fun place
while they are now thinking
its time you to start from
society's base
so you get into a school and
its different from what you thought
you are the fish that, in this net,
for a very long time is caught
finally you accept that you cannot
escape this nightmare so soon
so you start to adapt and evolve
in this cocoon
you make new friends
and learn a lot of names
some learn to be wise
some learn to make this life a game
you finally reach the end
but you know now is not the end
its either time to get a job
or to a college you are send
the people who loved to hear
whatever word came from your mouth
now if you say anything
on that they will shout
you think to yourself
if can i go through 12 years of pain
lets see in 3 or 4 years
what they can help me gain
these years pass faster
then the blink of your eye
but they will not give you
a moment to let you sigh
now you are thrown in a market
where like a thing you will be sold
there people will check you and buy you
you will have to serve them in hot and in cold
and as you come to age
your family will ask to marry
and as soon as you are
another bag you will have to carry
after a few years another cycle starts
once who was a baby is now
pushing a baby's cart
now you have grown old
and the cycle will soon run its course
you got in to the world and
will be taken out by the source
as you are on your bed
trying to close eyes so tired
people again will become nice to you
i think thats how they are wired
the pattern with which you grew
walk, talk and what you learn
it will all go away one by one
and finally for death you will yearn
at the end of your life
finally your breath is taken
and all of the people you knew
have been forsaken
