I was a little kid, not letting go off his mom Crying while entering the school gates, which now I dread to leave from.
I was scared to leave home, what will happen to me??
I am scared to leave now, oblivious of what the future holds at the sea.
Massive looking seniors were allotting me to my class,
Who would have thought that I would miss them the most at last?
My mom had given me such heavy books in the bag,
How important was their purpose that now I understand.
Then there were my teachers trying to calm me down,
For I was crying very loud, I didn’t want to leave my mom.
All these years they worked day and night;
If we become something it is because they joined us in the fight.
Oh thank you Ma’am for guiding and nurturing us, For giving us opportunities, for a life without any fuss
To the Didis and Bahiyas who helped us in every walk of life,
For mischief and trouble we caused I deeply apologize
And then through out my school life there were these people in my class, All in their own way sharp as broken glass
These were the people I always trusted,
These are the people who will make me smile whenever I'm frustated
They are my friends and to them I am most in debt
For helping me every time whenever I was bereft
Well now we have grown up and become mature, Grown enough to face the sea and sharks that the world beholds
But I will always remember that day I entered crying through the gate,
To prepare myself for the life beheld by my fate
