There is a time When nothing goes right Anything that you touch Turns into stone At work, candidates ignore you All the relationships built Through days of hard work Evaporate on that day The world seems to turn against you Leaving you frustrated and helpless And left with no alternative But to take the blame Squarely on your own shoulders Wishing you could be anywhere But in your own body As time passes by Slower than a snail You greatest desire Is that the day should end And you are put out of your misery However, Fate has other plans While you are determined To escape from the rush In the famous Mumbai locals Vodafone decides to come to the party The network falls apart Leaving you watching helplessly As Uber and Ola fail to load And Fate wears a gloating smile As you are forced To board the dreaded train And simply adjust Amongst a sea of commuters Your greatest desire Is that the day should end

The day should end
I have placed my trust in you Not once, not twice But for years and years Every time you fail to deliver I tell myself to be patient I say, "give it some time" As I wait and wait You begin to take me for granted Your service becomes poorer and poorer While my wallet grows thinner and thinner I tell myself to be patient But my face grows redder and redder My eyes begin to blaze My teeth grow sharper and sharper My mouth begins to foam My fists begin to clench My finger and toe nails grow sharper and sharper Still, I tell myself to be patient But then you fail spectacularly When it matters the most This is the last straw With an almighty roar I pounce on you Heedless of your frantic cries for mercy And tear you to pieces While I drink your blood I pause for a moment To savour the just retribution For all these years of injustice For all these years of betrayal I was patient, for a long time But patience too, has its limits
