Right from my childhood
I have convinced my heart and soul,

You have to work hard,
To survive and achieve a goal,

So I learned and learned real fast,
But my spirit lost and aims got past,

Somehow, I got a reasonable job,
I worked hard, and did not rob

Day in and day out, what I really found,
I did not get much I was always, running around

There comes a time, Parents become old,
Between my family and parents, it proved difficult to hold.

At times I found myself, totally alone,
Handling bills, repaying the loans,

Now, when you retire, your income gets low
But the bills keep rising with the same flow.

Life do not always moves with same stream,
As usual, you got to shed a few dreams!!!!
