Birthday

I remember, only one half of my mind was struck,
Last time when I was completely drunk.
“It’s been months when we broke up”,
It wasn’t our fault, it was all our fate.
Does this heal the wounds?
Surely not, coz it hurts somewhere your heart straight.

People says, “Memories are the best part of life”,
Is it so...may be...it’s coz of the smile that you get,
But what about the tears that trickles down your face and make it wet.
Suddenly the black dense clouds take over the clear sky,
My mind says yes but my heart says Why??...
Mind says,” This world is very mean, so think about yourself only”.
Heart says,” Living for yourself is not a life”.
So finally I decided to quit, to built a new shelter,
Where I will be free, my heart couldn’t knock and my mind couldn’t enter.
