Can't keep thinking about
The day I'll sit on my terrace
With wrinkled face and fragile body
Just wondering
How I fought for my batting in gully cricket
How I distributed chocolates on my birthdays
How I shared a different camaraderie with teachers
How I won golgappa competition against my sister
How I argued with friends over any sinister
How I struggled in those two years of my education
How I blushed while talking to my infatuation
How I bunked despite having full attendance
How I messed up having sometimes prepared well
Only thing that'll determine
Whether I'll remember these moments
With a smile or a cry
Is what I achieve in these recent times.
