Samanyan Lakshminarayanan - A WASTED SELF

If i were the water-
I would'nt have wasted myself-
in a flood.
If i were the wind-
I would'nt have wasted myself-
in a storm.
Iam human
Iam confined within myself
My smiles are measured.
Even if i cry- i try to
achieve what i need.
I have fixed my boundaries.
Iam confined within myself.

Even if it were a worldly waste-
I should have expressed myself
I should'nt be wasting my very self
without expressing myself.
Where do i start?
What do i become? -
to waste myself voluntarily.

Samanyan Lakshminarayanan
