Time..

Parents:
not too long ago.. i still carried u in my arms..
not too long ago.. i still wiped away ur tears..
not too long ago..u still cried for toys and sweets..
not too long ago.. i was ur hero, fought all ur fears.

just yesterday, you still looked up to me..
just yesterday, you still depended on me..
just yesterday, you refused to stay away..
was it just yesterday, memories fade,may be.

now ure ready to fly..stand on ur own feet..
independence, yes, its always been yours..
take care, and fly not like the ill fated Icarus..
n forget not the roots that kept u earth bound all these years.

" is it time yet..??"

Child:
back then as now.. ure still my everything..
back then as now.. i still love you more than anything..
back then as now.. i still need your blessings..
back then as now... i still remain your little one.

but the time has come.. to spread my wings..
fly to newer heights.. my destiny to be fulfilled..
fear not, lessons uve taught and ive learned.
the world is mine to explore, mine to be in.

a name for myself, its for me to forge it.
an identity to make for myself..
im not scared to take tat first step alone..
im your child, you taught me everything i kno.

" its time".
