The Curse of My Childhood

By Arsh Raz

Take away all the needles 

Of the clock.

I don't need it anymore.

It says, time is running,

and one day I will grow.

It says,

I'll loose my toys.

It says,

I'll be one of the old boys.

It says, I'll grow up

and have some responsibilities.

It says, my assets will become 

My liabilities.

So why should I look at it,

Take it away.

And leave somewhere. So that 

No one can get it in their pathway.

Cause who wants to have 

Such a waste.

Who claims to take 

All the stuffs of their interests.
