From spending money of our parents miserly
To being a spendthrift with our own money...
From being worried about pollution in the world
To polluting our own liver and lungs...
From looking at his cute eyes and her rosy cheeks lovingly..
To looking at his well built contours and her sensuous curves desirably..
We have come a long way In this short life
Have we adulted with our innocence or adulterated our innocence ??...
It's a question seldom asked..
And when not asked renders us insatiated
But fret not ...as it was bound to happen
For innocence has completed it's journey..
And now we embark upon adulthood..
With our mind focussed on our goals
But our heart clinging to our innocence
How to get it back I wonder
Yet upon the journey of this life didn't I ponder..
This longing and clinging made us cry...
For about the future we pry..
In this crying and prying we forgot to smile..
We are now in our youth before death lay another mile..
Smile in the memories and take pride in coming a long way..
For the time to claim and discover ourselves begins this very day..
So what if we are adulterated ..it's we who chose..
For in life we held on to the thorns to smell the rose..
