“The Aspects of Me!”

The child in me

Always tries to create troubles

Always tries to shirk responsibilities

Always tries to search for the lost childhood

In nostalgia and memories of those innocent times

Loving all living things, irrespective of their beings

The child in me tries to be truthful and honest

Letting out emotions on my mobile face!

The adult in me

Always tries to lecture my side of a child

Always tries to fulfill the needs

Always tries to compensate with given things

The adult in me tries to create fake smiles and

Tries to be deceptive to avoid further arguments

Always tries to reason with realities

And collisions to maintain peace and quiet

Despite the destroying emotions

Hidden deep like the sea inside me!
