I’m so young...

I’m so young
I love being young.

In fact, I know how old people must be feeling; they must be feeling very old.
Look at me, what my young age gave me,
No, not at my tattoo on my shoulder, not at the new era piercing I got or the cigarette filters you found in my room.
Look at my wings.
When you walk, I fly.
Walking gets so boring when you know how to fly.
Try to speed up a little, I’m faster than you
 I’m so young.
I love being young.
I can still drop out, quit jobs, skip towns, get high.
I can take all the money in my account, just to do a little shopping.
If you are not so young don’t come closer, the flames of my young heart might burn you down.
-The end-
P.S:
“I’m so young’
And I love being young”
I think that is what one is supposed to say when he/she is young..
But, I’m scared and I’m confused.
So I prey,
“Dear lord, turn this wall between me and my parents in to a bridge. Amen”
“Wait… Damn.. Sorry dear lord, I turned in to an atheist, after the Delhi gang rape and Wijerama gang rape, sorry for disturbing “
Let me start again.
“Dear Batman,
I’m so young and I’m scared.
Infection rate is more than a mere number to me, Statistics of unemployment, child abuses, lost citizens, suicides fear me to death, so please take care of those.
Please take a little control over the current trends of consumerism; it always makes a fool out of me.
I love Adam and Eve, Rama and Seetha. Please don’t get mad at me when I say I’m ok with Adam and Steve, Radha and Seetha too.
I love if, ‘expectations’ could be more than a fancy word in my dictionary, and I love if it
would get a chance to expand its boundaries a little.
You have given me the whole world at my fingertips, so please don’t put a plaster on my mouth.
Please accept me as who I am, forgive me, I’m learning through my mistakes. Thank you.
Yours humble,
Young Generation.
