Wishing

Finally a new one.. i wrote today, in four parts..
first, sitting near the lift of the b block lift of the metro station @ cp,
second, waiting for the train at the platform.
third, in the metro train
fourth, standing near the stairs at patel nagar station.

I wish I was a child again.
Probably of the age nine or ten.
No one would question what I did,
But loved me more because I was a kid.
Each mistake would be treated with a smile,
Everything wrong I did would be excused because I was a child.
Life would be trouble free without any tension,
No stress or decisions to make or learn any lessons.
It seems that a kid's life is too easy,
While making decisions, they dont need to be choosy.
Infact, they dont have to decide anything,
Elders do the needful, at the same time being so caring.
Its not the attention the kid seeks that attracts me,
But probably the way their life is seemingly tension free.
Life they say is not by chance but by choice,
And it is no one else but us, who choose to make tension a part of our lives.
So why cant we choose a life that is free from any kind of worry?
We are the ones who make our own destiny.
Life is too short and worrying makes it shorter,
You end up living your life not to the fullest, but a quarter.
Lets try to eliminate it totally if we can,
And who said we cant, because the choice is always in our hand.
Being worry free would make life simpler and happier,
And dont try to fake it, everyone can know when you are living life in fear.
Sadness and tears are not the only things that make up life,
But instead, make you realise the importance of happiness making you more wise.
