I Want To Live It.

I Want To Live It.

A Poem by Prabha Salimath
"

I want every parents take their children consideration before they think anything for them. A life needs what a soul wants not what authority commands.

"
It wasn't my dream,
A great runner I was.
Teacher raised a dream.
He wants me an athlete.

Parents took no notice.
Everyday I'm growing athlete.
Physical fitness is my concern.
Still no hope for tomorrow.

Sir encouraged me in vast.
I run like a cheetah, fast.
I'm glad runners get shock,
if they know, I'm in track.

Time to public exam.
Their eyes on me more.
Scrutinizing a full of me,
They said no to my dream.

Little school girl, no oppose.
I left my dream, to live theirs.
Leading my life in their way,
a new imposed rule upon me.

Chasing dream, I left behind.
Have I done anything wrong?
I would have been an athelete.
I could be an epitome of India.

My life is a punishment,
as I've slayed my dream.
Burried in dark side of mind.
The soul haunts me for rest.

Happiness is lost somewhere.
I bartered it for their smile.
Still I have time to live it.
Give me a chance to chase it.

That was not good. You must not buried you dream, First things always understand late but that is you own happiness. My friend, Avinash is right, Your works come from your heart.

You are welcome dear friend............ I can understand well.
This one was heartwrenching Prabha. Burial of a dream is more saddening than burial of the body. Your works come from heart.

Thank you so much for the review.
Very nicely elaborated, many a times parents dont understand what is the wish of their sons and daughter, they just order, you do this course, you study this stream etc etc, may be they want to fulfill their own unfulfilled wishes but they have to think that theirs ward is a living person not a toy, so let them decide themselves
