When I get old - Poem
Now i am young enough to know
will i be blow
when i am no more strong like i am now
Or i have to bear all which i see around
Is this the reality of the future
That old age is gold age or its a miracle
Which way will I be in when i go old
Leaving all being alone with family
Saying about myself
This is my happy time
And frighten always that the time comes when its gone
Today I am the king
coz I am loved by all
But when i grow old
and all these possessions
and nothing is with me
with some filthy clothes and ready to die
With the blunt knife of people around
And hope its only a bad dream
But truth is bitter and true is rude
So i will not be thinking about you
or only loving you
I won't have any work except using the fork
To eat and kill all those loneliness without you
So promise me now that you won't leave me
whatever happen or whenever the time
Either the young or old age
promise me that you will skip around me
coz you are only whom i trust and love
when my eyes are closed
i could see you and me on dining table
with some of our folks
and with our small crew
The old age which is true as our love
and it will never blow
we will never skip our days and nights
because i wanna love you and be everything we need
I will be around you and catch whenever you fall
I will never let you down and always be around
you too promise that you will be around
My dreams are dreadful without you
and you leave me and leave me alone
but please never let me in this dream
take me out of it and love me
We perfectly might not be fine
but being perfect lacks true love
and all this love is the existence among you and me
The old age
let it be fine and smile
on us of us
and suffer now for then
but who knows this world is not guaranteed
what will be the old age
going for being alone so
shake me and wake of this dream
and let our love flow
to the old age
either it comes or not
always protect our love as an ranger
always put me around as your shadow
Till the time come we go above
far above to our existence
where love is far more
But never leave me
in any phase or any age
coz it is obvious to be in old age
and be like your Nan for you
but never ban me from your love
and eradicate from your heart
coz I love you
and its only you for me
in every time and age
either shakespeare's seven our wordsworth's three
I will just love you
