Teenage :)

Set six alarms to wake at seven,
Still wake up late —  a sign from heaven.
Mom says, “Study!” Dad says, “Plan!”
My brain says, “ scroll Instagram.”

Homework waits like a horror show,
Due tomorrow… did I start? No.
Open books with noble intention,
Five minutes later — zero attention.

Friends say, “Bro, life is deep.”
We discuss it… instead of sleep.
Group chats buzzing all night long,
Mostly memes and one bad song.

Exams arrive — panic mode,
Suddenly, prayers are heavily owed.
“Dear universe, C'mon help me pass,
I promise I’ll attend every class.”

Crush walks by — system crash,
Confidence gone in one quick flash.
Rehearsed lines disappear somehow,
I even forget my own name now.

But honestly, through stress and drama,
Mood swings bigger than Netflix karma,
Teenage years are weird but cool —
Half chaos, half comedy school.

Sree....

Caveman

Dedicated to my son, who calls me a Caveman

Before the ink of time was dry,
Before the question, " Who am I,
I walked beneath an endless sky
With earth for a bed and wind nearby.

No kingdom marked the land with a line,
No measured hour, no grand design;
The sun would rise, the stars align —
Nature alone gave the sacred sign.

With trembling hands, I guarded flame,
A fragile light no storm could tame.
Against the dark it softly came,
And taught my silent world a name.

On cavern walls my stories stayed,
In ochre lines and shadows laid;
The hunt, the fear, the debts we paid 
A living memory never to fade

Sree.....
