When I walked in your shoes

Dear friend, it's been some time now..I haven't heard back from you..

Feels as if for you,am one of those strangers waiting in cue..

I think as if you have forgotten me altogether,

Have given up on all memories about the time we had spent together

Of course I am very proud of you,when I watch you climbing mountains,

With all the challenges that come across, you achieve success in tonnes

You keep saying to everyone, Life is busy,

Has it really been, or am I being too fussy?

Just to make sure,I decided to step into your shoes,

To explore about your life and how your boat sails

Honestly, I wasn't even able to walk with your shoes on, 

I wonder how do you manage to run with them all along

It is not easy to lead your life,I now understand,

Even in such a case, how do you manage to stand

I decide to put your shoes back and wear mine,having learnt enough lessons

I tried to look for my pair,and found them sitting on someone else's legs

My expressions turned from angry to happy, while checking on the person wearing them

It was 'you' after all this time, who had also been taking a walk through my life

We both smiled at each other, didn't say a word and gave a friendly nod

Headed towards our favoutite hanging place where we loved to go; 'without' our shoes on
