Little did I know

Little did I know,
How hard it'd be,
Following one's dreams,
Amidst the struggle to satisfy,
This so called society.

Little did I know,
That the so called norms,
Would be binding shackles,
Chafing away,
Once cherished ideals.

Little did I know,
That convictions too,
Would falter with time,
And prudence bordering on being risk-free,
Would be taken as coming-of-age.

How I dearly wish,
For all this acquired worldly wisdom,
To be replaced by childish impulsiveness,
And the unwavering conviction,
To follow my dreams,
Wherever they may lead...

Some lines by Gary Jules...

"All around me are familiar faces;
Worn out places, worn out faces;
Bright and early for the daily races;
Going over, going nowhere;

Their tears are filling up their glasses;
No expression, no expression;
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow;
No tomorrow, no tomorrow;

I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take;
When people run in circles its a very, very Mad world!"


The reason why i put it here is NOT to praise Gary Jules... He is an idiot! He postponed the inevitable & its HIM who compromised his dream! You cant blame the norms as shackles in the future! NEVER EVER POSTPONE THE INEVITABLE!!
