A shy boy

I wished to be a shy boy
Stay at home and silently play with toy
I was hesitant to mix with people
Yet it was nice arrangement without any trouble

I offered no hurdle of any kind
Yet people took it seriously to mind
I grew with enough of concern
Now it was their ire on me in turn

It was causing me internal pain
It was wearing me out and causing drain
I rebelled and thought of repelling attack
As if something was aimed at or at stake

I was not feeling sorry
It was causing me no worry either
I had decided to counter the move
To rise to the occasion and prove

I thought of running away
Keep aloof from people and stay
In isolation with no connection
Study with sincerity and put into action

I do believe in luck
But it won’t help if you are struck
You will have to cruise and reach the shore
Even if it is disabled and needs to anchor

I believe in destiny
But loose to crowd like many
I loose the patience and hastily act
It makes people to gang against and react

One must stay among and fight
This course seems to be very right
You may certainly find the light
When bright sun appears in sight
