Rumination

Dear Appa

I know you have dreams for me,

I know you have faith in me,

I know you have nurtured me,

But I want to fly away.

I know you have sat beside me,

I know you have cried with me,

I know you have died with me,

But I want to fly away.

I know you sacrificed for me

I know you struggled for me

I know you tried for me,

But I want to fly away.

I know you love me,

I know you care,

I know you would dare,

But I wish you just let me be, me.

Gyanban Thoughts - These few lines are a precursor to the story that follows in my next post - Dear Appa. This one talks about trapped feelings that so many youngsters have which they cannot express and suffer internally.In this age of over-communication people often miss the thousands of words spoken in silence.
