They Want To See You!

They Want To See You!

Today I got hurt, my maa scolded me

She never does.

And it’s true.

Went to study to my pal's house.

Came back, shoes on the shoe rack.

Maa was waiting for me but I hid behind the door just to prank her.

She shouted my name,

Again, again and again.

Looking at my bike she asked neighbors,

Sudden silence no words.

Asked everyone, how cruel I was stayed there to prank her more.

The prank left me sour.

My cellphone rang it was her but I didn’t answer.

For me it was funny but for her every second felt like an ugly day.

Won't do it again, no way!

Finally I went to her, I laughed but then noticed tears on her cheeks like never before.

Hugging her, I didn’t understand was it my mistake or was it her's.

I hid there for five minutes, was it that long?

Was I wrong?

Realized NO it’s neither mine nor her's.

The kids who think they have grown up to end their lives. It’s theirs.

Fools who think everything will get okay if they hung to death, wanting a wreath.

It’s theirs.

The real stories parents read making them more concerned but sometimes weak.

Now let me speak.

This life is not only yours. 

Love your life more than anything else here.

Be brave, make them believe that you're their child.

You are wild.

Your days belongs to everyone loving you, every breath belongs to the efforts they made for you.

They want to see you. More than the settled you.

They want to see you, more than the successful you.

THEY WANT TO SEE YOU.
