When I Am What I Am

It's just sometimes that I stop

And look around me...

What I am passing through or what I missed

It's just sometimes that I need

That minute of the day

When I count all the moments that I tread

It's just sometimes that I wish

Time was in my hands

Rather than just a watch to see that it slipped

It's just sometimes that I see

The reasons that brought a smile to my face

Were the ones I usually left unbothered

It's just sometimes that I find

That spark which lit my eyes years ago

Which I thought long back had died

It's just sometimes and only sometimes

I slip back in time or move ahead...

To live the memories or those times that may come

And it's these times and only these times

That I am what I am...
