“No one will wait for you”, was a phrase I heard a lot in my childhood. But the thing is, maybe I want to be left behind.
I might be a slow learner but I’ve learned a lot and I won’t forget a single thing.
In the speed of this world,
My body was warm and lonely.
I could hear my heartbeat,
And a lot moving across me.
Life was like a wind,
Years passed.
I am still right here,
Unchanged, untouched from all the rush.
In the midst of all the rush of life,
He looked at me.
A broken soul,
He saw in me.
Instead of picking me up,
He walked past me.
Instead of a pity face,
He smirked and mocked me.
I don’t blame him,
For he was true to himself and to me.
In this world filled with masks,
There was someone aloof, someone true.
However, it is also said “good things come to those who wait” and Woodrow Wilson says “All things come to him who waits – provided he knows what he is waiting for.”

Its not about waiting, I would rather say it’s about putting an effort to achieve it, because nothing comes for free in this world😄
