That red tie..

There are some things in life which justify everything.

Difficult days,frustation,anger,everything.

All these things just go poof when you see someone get what they truly deserve.

A smile,a sense of comfort is all that you derive your purpose out of.

This goes out to an alum who did not give up on his dream. He faced probably the most testing times an individual could probably face but then hey,he cracked it,didn't he.

Never been happier.Paras,that tie would always remind us of what all you have achieved and yes,it only gets better from here.

That tie,hanging,dangling,like a noose,

Reminding,hurting,that old shoe.

Hurting and bleeding for far too long,

Abuses,like a lullaby,this pain,a song.

A step ahead,pushed back by miles,

Name forgotten,amidst those dusty files.

Acknowledgement of existence refused,

Voice not hear,lips forcefully glued.

But today I spoke,and how I did speak,

Told them I was tired,but then not weak.

Finally,a smile made a trip,oh so amiable,

One chair to another,then across the table.

Their nods were finally what I extracted,

Shook hands with shaking hands,grabbing before they retracted.

Phew,albatross off my neck,sans the load,light,

As I waltz my way to happiness,to claim this long due right.
