Busy, busy, busy days,

Everyone around is busy these days

Running ahead of time,

Literally siting, doing nothing,

Yet unable to survive in this world!

World has fallen apart as the days pass,

I took a leap through the sky.

Then suddenly someone from clouds

Came down to make me

The way I ever wanted to live – 

Just like a dream or movie role.

But I love the way I act through it,

Complete with a “wow” factor!

My mind is full of hopes and wises,

To live like a prince in a fairy tale,

And I’m literally doing it,

Because the person who came is the

One who I ever wanted to have!

And their presence brings a happiness 

I never, ever had in the past 

Twenty years of my life!

As the right person has arrived,

My mind and body start to

Enjoy each moment to the core.

And now it feels like..

I’m six years old again!
