What makes me realize life
More than the beautiful pain
Which was born with me,
And made me cry when I first felt light.

This person helped me walk
By making me fall
Which made me grow tall
But still, he makes me fall,
Each time when I forget to live.

Starting to live in this modernized society
Made me forget the necessity
Of the smile he gave, after every fall
Which started vanishing
When I started cultivating,
The ever-lasting fear to meet him.

After all this drama
Of living a life with no pain
There’s nothing for me to gain
As I was one among the broken pieces,
Of the ticking clock moving in vain.

Fate made me walk
Back to the known path
To the home of an unknown person
Forgotten by the changing world.

Meeting him was the life changing moment
Which was not just a single event
But a thread that made me look back,
At the fake laughter all over my track.

Being afraid to continue,
I shook hands with this life changing man
Who started to change my perspective,
In looking the crowd whose effort to protest
Were just lame,
When all those people’s inside
Remained the same.

Pain helped me gain,
The courage to break this chain.
Leaving all this drama behind
Looking forward to bind,
All the thoughts that make me live.

I let this person to reside in my heart,
Which made me feel the beat of it.
Making me change the life of mine,
By making me live bearing its own sign.
