Me Myself n' I

Followin' the shriekin cries of a beautiful lady
He made his way into this beautiful world
It aint all that beautiful he thought as he made his way
For,he wailed aloud n' they were all happy n' gay

Holdin' the fingers of his mother....he learnt to walk
Observin' the lips of his father....he learnt to talk
He saw his world in the two of them
N' it seemed all beautiful to him

Wailin' n' unwillingly goin' to school..he din't wanna get rid of those fingers
Away from them,an uncertainy always lingers
He was scared to meet new people n' scared of everythin' around him
Without a choice,he left his world behind n' entered the one awaitin' him

Lookin' back at his childhood....he wondered what he was scared of
The irony was that fear is all that he was made of
A fear which made him so very narrow
An uncertainity walked with him like a shadow

Day in n' day out he came up with unanswered questions
He'd been walkin' alone in search of suggestions
Now he's all down n' broken.....his life lacked smiles,laughters n' cheers
Even the liberty of cryin was stolen.....as he was left with no tears

Somewhere down the road,on the long walk
He came across people who,with him were ready to talk
The cheer of his childhood began to sway
The unanswered questions faded away

He brought them the same cheer that they brought him
Suddenly....happiness seemed to have filled up to the brim
Toghether they reached for the sky which no more seemed high
He then grew with happiness all around him....grew from He to I

hey!!..good one!!..but wouldnt call it the best!!..and i personally feel it was too short..tells very little about you!!..but like you said you wanted to write only about that one part of your life so it doesnt really matter!!..and the beginning and the end are awesome!!..thats what i like in your poems..those few catchy lines that you can never forget!!..keep writing!!
