what would you do,
how would you think,
who would you seek,
where would you go?
if you find,
only having a certain years to live?
do you go on,
spend it happy?
or helplessly soak,
in a circle,
of sorrows?
don't,
don't go there.
realize,
letting yourself be defeated,
is not an option.
go on well,
everything happens for a reason.
that i sincerely believe.
have grown up somehow.
lessons learnt,
many of it.
some in their hardest ways.
so what?
here still,
having fun with living,
and dreams to come.
some days,
gets hurt to break.
it burns the others around,
as bad.
impatiently,
dissolve and obsess,
the seemingly,
bright days ahead.
prodigal habits,
die hard.
not stopping it.
having the privilege,
to be it,
is intoxicating.
at least,
be better.
to be the best.
constantly,
they cry for help.
nobody seems to hear.
constantly,
they reach for aid,
nobody seems to come.
why?
the lavish life,
won't be contrived.
by extending the hand,
just for a tiny moment.
and that is enough.
they're not asking for too much.
just a little favor.
don't choose,
who to rescue.
what if i'm them today?
i'm sure you'd come.
hence take them,
as myself.
come and help me a little.
help them a little.
have you ever felt,
to just shout out to the world,
asking for help?
have you ever felt,
having choices to make,
just not enough?
have you ever felt,
that you wanna run away,
be somebody else?
i wanna shout,
i wanna choose,
i wanna run.
this is so boring,
i can do far better,
going back home.
standing in place,
running in circles,
everyday's the same.
will i let it be,
for another year to come?
knowing i can make such difference,
back home?
will i?
should i?
i don't even know now.
this little place,
decided to close down on me?
or is it i,
decided to fold myself up?
things evolve rapidly,
i used to be fast,
only this time,
i refuse to keep up.
routines,
hate it to pieces.
i voluntarily chose,
for the better,
i thought then.
world,
life,
achievements,
future,
goals,
come chasing nowadays.
i'm so tempted.
i hope for the time to stop,
don't wanna go back home,
don't wanna go back home.
time please stop.
let me be here,
for as long as i want.
shut the world,
shut everybody,
left you and me in this room.
don't wanna go out there.
let's go in circles,
waste time.
im okay,
with you.
when the world starts running again,
we know all will change.
never know when,
this all will happen again.
i'll miss it so much.
let me stay,
let me steal,
let me buy,
this moment with you.
so i don't have to search no more.
misfortunes,
obligations,
temptations.
are the three words,
i came across recently.
thought it was missing another one.
the ultimate one,
the answer.
misfortunes,
indeed in everything we do,
there will be things we see,
as liabilities.
big or small deals,
we still get discouraged.
obligations,
can be a heavy one,
or light.
still,
has to be fulfilled.
temptations,
will stop us from yielding.
not saying neither,
has to be completely ignored.
just,
not too much.
a word i like to add,
achievement.
life is all about it.
at least for me.
three words prior,
i try to keep it balanced.
so i can achieve,
as much as i have aimed.
and the equation,
again,
at least for me,
comes down to one word.
happiness.
branding,
packaging,
are the two words i think,
all of us are familiar with.
right?
well,
the best of it,
i have seen,
is not on a product,
not on a person,
but on a country.
the united states of america,
or i should say,
new york especially.
we've again and again seen,
the over exaggeration,
made overrated,
of simply how great it is.
now,
that's fantastic packaging.
the brand itself,
i don't need to say much,
it's the united states of america.
moreover, new york!
i've been living here for almost a month now,
nothing like what you've seen in the movies.
it's comfortable,
not that great.
it's quite safe,
not that dangerous.
as we have seen and heard.
just simply,
new york.
another city.
it used to be,
supposed to be,
meant to be,
one nation.
the people's.
lately,
things have changed.
as economy,
and politics,
took its wrong turn.
immensely reminded,
educated most formal,
even ruled,
to respect the flag representing.
all for no matter what?
what if i am a little person?
what if i am the uneducated?
what if i am a homeless?
what if i am not the socialite?
what if i am nothing?
will my government,
appreciate me still?
protect me still?
stand up for me still?
responsible for me still?
or will i,
be the dump?
be the outcast?
be the isolation?
be the unimportant?
should i still call the country mine?
do i still need to love,
respect and,
fight for its freedom?
when i am already rejected.
without the bucks,
without the status,
without the name.
it was a theater,
can't say it's big,
can't say it's small neither.
people from all over the planet,
different races,
religions,
dreams,
sat together.
in peace.
rightfully simple to comprehend,
the world is a much better place,
that way.
why then,
still,
endlessly we see abominations?
rights,
freedom,
humans value more than anything else.
while not realizing,
by force,
had been terminated.
fear,
always there.
unless one learn to be oblivious,
but that isn't right either.
dead end isn't it?
even one of the greatest men,
whine.
even one of the most creative artists,
steal.
even one of the most religious ones,
lie.
even one of the bravest souls,
run.
who to trust?
who to believe?
perhaps, nobody no more.
white becomes black,
love becomes hate,
sweet becomes sour.
in seconds,
everyday.
what to trust?
what to believe?
perhaps, nothing no more.
a fighter gives up,
a lover walks away,
a parent disowns,
a child grieves.
freedom no more.
respect no more.
faith no more.
nothing no more.
ourself,
is what we really have still.
and that is all.
i noticed life.
i noticed beauty.
i noticed freedom.
i noticed future.
i noticed grandness.
at the same time,
i noticed worse.
i noticed poverty.
i noticed homeless.
i noticed crime.
i noticed fraud.
then again, we're all mortals.
rightfully borne good,
created equal.
it's the world,
the knowledge,
that changed us.
just to live,
or simply the pursuit of a little happiness.
never satisfyingly.
back to the right of people to approve,
or abolish,
the good and bad in them.
we're all in a big bet,
having each other to win, or lose.
it is authorized,
made a public secret.
an approved one too.
hence will the world be better, or worse?
the air, the wind, the breeze,
walked,
against it.
the crowd, the noise, the scene,
passed,
through it.
tranquility.
buried in the sands,
packed,
but empty.
she missed it all.
it was definitely memorable,
the night i will remember for long.
thank you everyone of you.
the speech that i had to say wasn't good enough,
to even a little bit describe how thankful and happy i was.
i guess, here, now i am redoing it.
through these writings.
first thing i thought was,
'what did i do to deserve all these'.
the most beautiful,
precious souls,
gathered to say the goodbyes for my leaving.
like i have always said,
with heart i will still be here.
my departure is not a long one.
will be back before you know it.
and yes, we have to party the way we did again.
for all the years to come.
i love you guys.
again, what did i do to deserve all these.
i might never know, but thank you so very much.
two years.
sounded ages then.
thought i wouldn't stay that long.
but here i am,
in the very end of it.
still am sad that i am leaving it.
the experiences have been wonderful.
the place, although hateful at times.
the people, although hateful at times.
the life, although hateful at times.
i will sure still miss them all,
at some point later.
myself,
i have learnt lots.
i discovered my calling.
i made mistakes.
i resent things.
i met great people.
i have carved this years in my heart still.
the education,
learnt lots, like i said.
thank you all that have taught me well.
my calling,
i fell in love with it.
am going,
to chase it,
till i got it.
thank you for the one that have shown me.
mistakes,
i made some.
small and big ones.
i regret.
thank you still, for the experience.
all resentments,
i forgot.
and apologize for the ones i've caused.
let's forgive and forget.
for we all fought together,
and now we're winning,
together as well.
few great people,
i love you.
will always be my best.
never met no souls that unique.
you know who you are.
remember what i said,
wait for me,
and i shall be back.
we will reach the top together.
the years,
will stay in my heart.
remembered vividly.
as i will look back years later,
and thought,
'that was where i start'.
'that brought me here, today'.
'they were there, through my darkest times'.
'they are my dream team'.
that's then, when,
i will be on my way back home.
here.
with the few of you,
that will always stay in my heart.
