Bundle of Contradictions :)

Bundle of Contradictions


Sometimes I want to fly in the vast sky, so high
Free and far away from the monotonous groove.
But there are times when I want to be held, sigh,
In warm arms, so that I cannot willingly move.

Sometimes I want to run like the wind, race,
Barefoot on soft wet grass, without any care.
But there are times when I stop, lower my pace
Relish every single moment with time to spare.

Sometimes I want to keep going with the flow
Not wanting ripples in the calm lake of life.
But there are times I want to rebel, bellow,
Impulsively challenge fate and have a strife.

Sometimes I simply cry, other times I laugh
Chatter like a parrot or shut up like a clam,
Sometimes I agree, there are times I scoff
A bundle of contradictions, thats what I am!

This poem was inspired by the blog title of one of my closest friends Soumya who has taken to blogging very recently. Hence this is obviously dedicated to her, though the poem is actually about me :-D. (Well, I'm dedicating it to her here just to avoid copy-right issues, if any, from her :-D. Hehehehe :))) :-D)...
