A LOOK AT LIFE-142 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY Let me forget Everything I have learned Let me exhaust All that I have earned Let me forget Who I am and where from Let me come out of All relationships and hangovers To visualise life in its true colour Let me begin life once more With no past to lean upon No future to dream for No status to safeguard No relations to take care Let me get out of the cage Where I have been long since The social clusters Caste, creed and colour Religion, dogmas and superstitions Pelf, power and accolades To be in fresh air Where truly breathes life In the serene oasis Let me forget my name and identity To go beyond me and all That put limits Pride, anger and prejudice Ego, hatred and jealousy Let me forget history and geography Boundaries and territories Myths, parables and collective conscience To look at things in proper perspective For the first time Let my eyes see Ears listen and heart speak Let reasons take a back seat Emotions and feelings Come out in the open For a change Let me be a free bird in the blue sky To have a romance With all that I fancy and love.
