Life in Emoji

-
Life is more in emoji than in us
Simple things become a matter of fuss

We're more social than alive
Wanna be success without the need to strive

Wanna live easy and dissipate worry
Throw away pressure and work in a  hurry

The goals seen on sites are fear
Of failing which,  the consequence we don't want to bear

The emoji of smile and drops in eyes
Says it all without needing us to be wise

Giving up has become too easy and acceptable
So, we give up the eustress of loss palpable

Fighting fate is hard
And these emojis are the dumbest part

We are frustrated but send a laugh 
Who knows, maybe the other one is also falling half

Growing up is an addiction
And faking your own self is conviction

So learn before it gets late
Love, before you are forced to hate

 It takes years to build a man worth the words Walking his own path irrespective of herds Is it good, is it bad? who's to say goes the man, on his own way Whatever it takes long hours short breaks breaks that ache from restlessness living is running to harness Towards the stress of being complete From ages and ages of duress dark day, darker the night who's to say the way is right Its the gait and the face The strait laced ace and respect from gates

Being ME

-
 I was told about things to worry times-a-passing, goals to hurry Somehow I don't want to be the hero of folklore wearing a mask, forcibly forlorn I want to be me The best that can be Laugh when I want fall on some slant Cry my eyes out Acknowledge me every doubt Define me wherever and however seizing to be alive, never Walk on my own gait celebrate worth, tackle hate Dream endlessly and still not fret There's a story to be told about me that I don't know yet
