Lost in his thoughts
walking down the pavement
That man always dreamed to go far beyond
Tortured by loneliness
Yet exulted with many
When did he become life’s unwanted pawn
Pouring water touched the time
When his merrymaking friend used to smile
kissing away all his troubles as sure as magic wand
Her melting embrace, her twinkling eyes
when lost at the age of six
“Come back, Mom” is all he could say when life had him conned
Precious bond was broken, with it his little heart
running after those shadows
Wish he could turn time around
He forgot to express
even at people’s behest
reminiscing those days when he didn’t require words to respond
With time elapsing, new friends entered life
some betrayed some left in a while
he kept searching into the horizon for something more than a Utility Bond
People said “you’re heartless”
he smiled and move forward
he knew he lost his heart with the person when he got abandoned
Yet he tried to keep them happy
and yet girls question for men being so insensitive
how could he tell them that he had been trying to feel… since long
Falling rain reminded him of everything
those untroubled childhood days of fun
drenched from head to toe act was loved & never once frowned
He hopes to be with someone
being that chirpy boy again
thinks while walking down the pavement,
because this ‘Umbrella Guy’ deserves to be owned
