When did you <br />Go so far ahead? <br />I remained here <br />In these surroundings. <br /> <br />Traveling to <br />Many countries <br />Observing all <br />Wonderful things <br />Meeting people <br />Of all cultures <br />Performing deftly <br />A variety of jobs <br />You earned a lot <br />Of rich experience <br />And I remained <br />In these surroundings. <br /> <br />Don't ever go to <br />Unknown places <br />Don't you talk to <br />Any strangers <br />Everybody stressed <br />Repeatedly to me <br />I blindly believed <br />And strictly followed <br />With no interest <br />In knowing the unknown <br />For years together <br />My curiosity dried up <br />Like tree in the forest <br />Like the stationary rock <br />I remained here <br />Where I was always <br />And you moved <br />Far far ahead.<br /><br />Tirupathi Chandrupatla<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/far-ahead-2/
