"They are so silly, I'm too good at that."
"Oh! How good they are, I can never match that."
These thoughts confuse me day and night,
These confusions take my dreams miles out of sight.
What to play- cricket, football or lawn tennis?
What to study- Bio, Chemistry or Physics?
Whenever I ask God-"What's my fate?",
Hundred lines of prayer i narrate.
In the end it's a silly boy's tale,
Who in this way will surely fail.
I've to choose a fixed aim,
Oh God! Its the toughest part of my life's game.
If i lose, it'll be a shame.
My life will become a cry in the wilderness!
So I'll try my best to pass this test,
As after the test I'll enjoy life at its best!
