Dear parents
I hope you never read this
But I know someday you will
I'm sorry

I'm sorry for being not upto your expectations
I'm trying hard to be as you want
I'm really trying
But you don't seem to get it

I have no intentions of hurting you
In any situation
But most of the time I end up doing that
But I want you to understand me

I want you to be familiar with me
Even though you know me from my birth
I am not the same as I was a month ago
So, please understand

You are trying your best
To make my life a good one
And I'm mature enough
To recognise your hard work

Being a parent
Just let your kids speak for themselves
Let them choose what they want
Let them make mistakes

The more you prevent them
The more they grow weak
And one day
They'll end up like me

                                                                                    ~Sree
