Palas Kumar Ray - Then And Now

(THEN)

A Dream
Came True.

A Seed
You Formed.

A Bud
You Born.

A Sapling
You Grew.

You Babbled
They Laughed.

You Ate
They Flattered.

You Staggered
They Supported.

You Fell
They Worried.

You Cried
They Wept.

You Played
They clapped.

You Suffered
They Exclaimed.

You Tried
They Helped.

You Wished
They Fulfilled.

You Failed
They Mourned.

You Won
They Celebrated.


(NOW)

A Tree
You Grown.

They Exist
A Blessing.

They Babble
You Grimace.

They Walk
You Irritate.

They Fall
You Rebuke.

They Eat
You Frown.

They Love
You Deny.

They Cry
You Ignore.

They Suffer
You Hesitate.

They Wish
You Repeal.

A Liability.
They Become.

Dream Turns
A Nightmare.
