Blessed was I to walk into this world,
In hands which cared and caressed me all times,
‘Papa, papa’, a distant voice I could hear,
I wanted to respond, but had to wait so long.
I stumbled and I walked and then walked too far,
Now when I turn, I see nothing but despair,
I wish I could go back to the same old days,
Into the tenderness of her love and care.
Rugged as I may look, so am I from inside,
Wish I could keep the selfish desires aside,
Free like a bird I want to fly again,
Wish I could get back my wings for the ride.
Folded those wings, to get another flight,
Not sure though, if it is right after all,
Entrapped in my own shell I want to break out,
To breathe again, and to live some more!
