Remember

Remember those days when you were young?

When you think you are the best

And you try to stand out from the rest

When you think you can be everything

From being a policeman, to being a superman

And when you smiled and jumped with joy

As your parents bought you a new toy

And you brought it to school to show it

To your friends who can't stop their envy

And you felt you were Earth's luckiest kid

And when you didn't get what you wanted

You screamed and shouted in agony

You felt miserable, you felt cheated

You cried and shed tears that could never stop flowing

And all your parents did was nothing, but ignore you

And now that I have grown up and matured

Whenever I see children behaving in such ways

I do nothing but to frown at their behaviour

And I think, wasn't I like them during my younger days?

And so I smiled, as I watched the fiasco going

Life is a play, it is funny

It is nothing but an irony

As I stared at the boy, whom acted immaturely

And asked myself that question

Don't you remember those days, when you were young?
