A Learning Experience!

Experience is the best teacher,

But I learn from other’s experiences,

Doesn't it make me a good student?

In this phase of life I saw them stumbling,

To follow the same path I was reluctant,

I became a little selfish and maybe even harsh,

But getting here I became dependant.

I know who I live for and accountable to,

And not to give in for others’ happiness,

I hope to make it better for myself,

Not for someone’s discontent shallowness.

I know my reasons for this, which for others is disturbing,

There are judgements made every now and then,

I’ll try not to fall prey to you all,

I'm hoping for a better gain.

There are many secrets but best kept when with yourself,

And there are more ‘concerned’ trying to get them out,

I find my comfort in sharing almost none,

Let them delve with their excitements and doubt.

I don’t exactly know where have I landed and how?

But rather enjoy it and be prudent,

Too much of niceties eventually may just hinder,

Try learning before that teacher and be an excellent student!
