Passing by the old school
I felt some emotional strings
In my childhood, my least favorite
But smiles now is what it brings

That phase had passed
It doesn't recognize me anymore
I decided to walk in my old school
With childhood memories so pure

I remembered so many things
But everything now feels so strange
Gone were the days of fights and fun
Probably everything had been changed

Classrooms, blackboards, playground
Everything still looked same
Did I lose myself as that child I've been,
I thought as I looked at kids playing games

Some kids were crying
They didn't want to be in school
Reminded me of another shade of past and
I felt a splash of fear from the emotional pool

Stupidly smiling, so much amused
I wondered why kids didn't like school
Suddenly a weird thought crossed my mind
Aren't we still the same emotional fools?

Life is incredibly so full of surprises
Moments are flowing like streams
Busy in immaterial tasks we forget to live
Foolishly Postponing our life, maybe
Oblivious to the fact, moments are passing by
Or we know everything and still chose to pretend by forcefully closing our eyes
