I remember the time,
I saw my baby brother in the hospital,
I started crying,
I told my mom to leave him there,
I wanted to be an only child,
I still do sometimes when he's so irritating,
I was 4

I remember the time,
I was standing on my balcony,
and a monkey came,
I tried to push the monkey
with my grandmom's stick,
Instead I was rolling down the stairs,
I don't remember exactly what happened,
I was 6

I remember the time,
I erased my friend's homework,
thinking it would be amusing,
My friend didn't think so,
Nor did the teacher,
I was 8

I remember the time,
I was made to kneel outside the class,
Just because I was talking,
I couldn't believe it!,
I was 12

I remember the time I entered college,
People were amused by my initials,
I didn't understand why,
They started calling me AK 47,
I was sick of it!
I was 16

I remember the time I sat in my engineering orientation,
I thought,
"God! How can I survive here for four long years!"
and Guess what?!,
before I knew it,
It was over!
I was 22

I remember the time,
My first day in office,
I thought my training would never end,
Now it has!

Before I know it,
I'll be married!
I'll have kids!!!
I'll be thinking about their school!!!!
I'll be 40!!!!!!
God!!!!!!!!
Someone stop the time!!!!!!!!!
Stop it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  1. Good one, thoroughly enjoyed it! It made me remember of my childhood days, even I had nick names and some kind of hatred towards my siblings. it all sounds funny now because time has passed so fast. There is actually nothing we can do about it. The best thing that can be done is to realize that we have one..only one short life..and lets make it beautiful..cherish every moment of it....And importantly start it now..right now :)

  8. I think we need not stop the time, because I believe each and every second (past, current and future) is giving equal amount of opportunity to enjoy the life.

    Anyway, it is a nice one.
