“I wonder how?
I wonder why?
Yesterday you told me ‘bout a blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree
I’m turning my head up and down
I turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see
Is just another lemon tree”
-Fool’s garden-lemon tree
So I wonder how? I wonder still? How I wish things were just different? Or did I get it all wrong? Was it meant to be like this? That did I tend to be normally abnormal?
I tried to break free of my confines. I tried to fly free. I tried to look at the big black world. But alas did I still get it all wrong?
I soared high one time; I dropped deep low another time. Was it how it was all meant to be?
I feel so good, I feel so down, I feel so happy and still I feel sad. Is it how it should feel?
So I wonder how? I wonder still? How I wish things were just different? Or did I get it all wrong? Was it meant to be like this? That did I tend to be normally abnormal?
I get crazy, I shout at the top of my voice. I get mad, I sulk in a corner. Is it the normal way of life?
Ghosts of the past haunts me, ghosts of the future lingers in a corner. Is it the same for everyone?
I find it all exciting at one time, that I can take it no more. I find all to boring another time that I can’t vent up my frustration. So does it make me normal?
So I wonder how? I wonder still? How I wish things were just different? Or did I get it all wrong? Was it meant to be like this? That did I tend to be normally abnormal?
I laugh when I want to cry. I cry when I want to laugh. I see everyone through rose colored glasses. So I wonder if I am normal?
I see myself high in spirits. I see myself as a social outcast. I see myself heading high in people’s favorites list. Was it how life tends to be?
I bubble with confidence. I shrink away in fear. I search for the limelight, and I shrink away from embarrassment. Does it make any sense?
So I wonder how? I wonder still? How I wish things were just different? Or did I get it all wrong? Was it meant to be like this? That did I tend to be normally abnormal?

Driving people insane as always
Ray of light
Shining far in the dark
Let me near it
And make a strong mark
You made me come up by an inch
And slide down by two
I don't care
And I don't care anymore
I do my best
And wait for rest
I have dreams
So true it seems
But, it came to me
And so out of reach
I don't try to breach
But it makes me weep
Life is unfair
Or so they say
But let me up
And let me see
But, Oh I don't care
And I don't care anymore
Ray of light
Here I come
I am not so far
That you seem less dark
Let me reach you
With all my dreams
Un-altered Un-shattered
I do my best
So I get the rest!
Zanychild
Driving people insane as always
Here we go
On a whole new round
On the fresh ground
A new beginning
A new adventure
Gone is yesterday
Now is the day
For a fresh start
Leaving behind the past
Burying it deep down fast
Walls may tumble
Hearts may crumble
But nothing stops us
From seeking forward
Hope as bright as the sun
Never give up
Never lay low
The world is yours
And yours alone
You travel each round
Gain experience by a pound
Stormy seas
Rumbling Mountains
Never let it alter your dream
Dream within the dream
And relish it with cream
Coz the world is yours
And yours alone
Zanychild
Driving people insane as always
You are like the dew drops
Hiding from the sun
The sun caught you in its beam
Sent its ray of path
For you to travel
At it’s every beck and call
It adds you to its jewel of clouds
It shines triumphantly
You sneer back at it
You are the gem that ran away
And traveled on flowers and leaves
You wallowed in their fragrance
But your joy was short lived
Moon would have let you go
But the sun always finds you!
You are the glorious sun
Leading my way through darkness
My heart jumps at the very sight of you
Those unspoken words
Those unspoken actions
Strengthens our love
When I have no family to look back to
When I have no friends to look back to
When I have no elders to look back to
And to guide me, through my worries and fears
You zoom wide and large before me
You tell me I need not look back
You are in right in front of me
To chase away all my worries and fears
I need no family, no friends, and no elders
Only you
Just you
For me to find eternal joy and happiness…
You crossed rivers of struggle
You climbed mountains of difficulties
You walked on streets of confidence
You glided on oceans of hope
You jumped into the hall of fame
You made me proud
By making my heart swell with pride
You- my son
Your victory
Brings an end to my worries
No longer are people taunting me
They look at me with awe
They respect me for you
I do not need riches and wealth
All I need is you to be happy
All I need is you to succeed
And it has happened
Now I can rest in peace
Nothing is going to bother me anymore
I will die peacefully
As a mother of you
Proud at heart
Live long my child….
I dreamt
I was traveling on a flying saucer
I dreamt
I was jumping in the Milky Way galaxy
I dreamt
I caught stars and collected them
But,
Never did I dream
I will meet you
That you will melt my heart
That you will stay by my side when I need you
That you will pamper me unnecessarily
Then, does it mean
This isn’t a dream
But reality?
We had a wonderful time
You said you will bring the moon to me
You said the flowers were jealous of you
You said there was nobody like me
Was it all a dream?
A real bad dream
Because, now you don’t even notice me
I don’t find the moon from my window
There are no flowers blooming at me in my house
Had I become nobody to you?
