Here I am

Here I am

Smartly dressed and nothing to expect
I opened the door to the open world in full zest
Tons of people greeting me,while others sulking for my birth
Here I am, in this beautiful world, a soul with nothing worth.

I walked down the lane, unaware of my destiny
watching people here and there also walking willy-nilly
Going through the park and plane,I reached a stop
from where my journey will begin from bottom to top
Here I am, in a busy bus, where people start their dreams.

The journey began with lots in store
and with lots of promise,the crowd gallore
At every stop,new people entered while those inside got
promoted
Approaching my place,enthusiasm in me erupted
Here I am,after a long successful journey, in front of one big
company.

I worked my way up, around friendly,jealous and many kinds of
people
Sometimes high and at times low, my self-estemm changed into
simple
I spent my lunch alongwith someone close
and it continued the way till the end was close
Here I am, almost about to retire, giving finishing touches to
my personal and professional life

I stepped out of the office waving everyone goodbye
knowing one day everything is going to die
Got into a bus, this time to end my journey
pictures of my childhood, youth running away
watching everyone do the same as what i once did
Having big dreams and ambitions ending inside a lid
Here I am, feeling tired and sick, walking on the street to
get back from where i came.

I opened the door from outside and got into the house, closed
the lights and thought of the next day's journey which is
nothing but a surprise.
