Mostly I scoff at their words.
But this time, I did not.
As the bridegroom for humility I kept my cool. But their words kept flying about like kites.
They had no brakes and as they constantly threw word missiles, I kept my cool.
For a long time they referred to my ego. They called it a bane. A bane on my life.
But today I chose respect. And as such I kept my cool.
Everyone knew me except I. With it they caged my freedom.
You cannot handle yourself.
In their words they were treating me like an egg.
You are fragile, you need to be handled with care.You are our blue sky. You can never be moody.
Then came the words. You should be careful. Your life is not yours alone. I understood them. Yes I did. But one I disagreed.
They said they knew me. They said they knew what I will become. I said ok. Then as their words started their march. I noticed they were not in synch. There was a mismatch.
They had it wrong. They did not know me. They were wrong.
I objected.
Yet they forced me, they crippled me with threats. I felt sad. My soul betrayed, I gave up.
I chose their path. They smiled. My heart wept, it ached. What choice do I have?
I have one. Theirs. So I took it.
Then I failed. Their path had thongs. It led to destruction.
I raced to them. With anger I screamed. Thank you I said. Finally the fragile egg has broken.
With it my life. The ones who said they would handle me well just broke me. I know me, but they said they knew me better.
And now the blue sky has turned moody.
So has my life.
So has my hope and so has my future.
They are now speechless. Their words lost, I took flight.
I was determined to turn on my life\'s light, and change my plight.
I know me better. They said they knew me best.
Their reason, they gave me life. But I do not hate them, I love them.
For in their own way, they were helping. But I knew me best.
