Leave Me Alone.. Can You ?

I want my time……

Day blooms with ‘Call’ time,

And fades with family time,

Weekends tagged with friends,

Flutter and flurry

Where is my time?? 

I want my time….

Yonks ago, even in a small space, 

With throngs of people around,

In the Midst of chaos

I had my time.

Latched inside meant just me

Privy meant Eureka time

Black out meant merry time

My time was just me & myself.

And Time rolls…

Life happens…

Big House & fancy cars 

More Utilities , helpers,

Door step services,

All just a click away,

Still, Where is my time? 

Who flew off with my time 

Is something trailing behind?

Not my shadow,

Creepy and scary,

I shut and hide myself

But someone knows it all 

What I think & dream

Even before I utter,

Jittery, edgy , fidgety

I want my time back ….

I Search everyday everywhere

Naively I try all my old ways ..

But I am never alone

And my time

Swept with the winds. 

“Find yourself  go inside“ 

Said someone

And I tested… 

Breathe in & out… 

oh my, Too much noise deep within.

Leave me alone…..

I want my time …just me 

Like my nonage days.
