Emotional Fools Poem by amol lanke

My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..

When I was a child I with my friends always shared,
Like a bluetooth with every person my hearts device paired..
My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..

In my teenage I dreamt of being an ideal child, sacrificed all the fun,
What I got in the end? Not even left with sausage and rest ate the bun..
My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..

In my youth I cared for very much the person whom I loved a lot,
Much later I realised that too much care also creates in relation a clot..
My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..

I cried a lot for pain of others, even a good news brought in my eyes tears,
People moved ahead in race of life later I realised my vehicle had no gears..
My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..

Sacrificed for parents, wife, kids, friends, collegues, society, everyone,
All got comforted and enjoyed cool breeze I alone had brunt of harsh sun.
My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..

Lived for others, but myself only dreamt of luxuries, and gold,
Even to me the monk cheated and his ferrari never sold..
My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..

Today I am growing old, getting obselete, yet more growing are the emotions,
Everyone's taking me for granted, in their eyes I am moving back with demotions..
My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..

I celebrated the joy of life only when people were alongwith me,
But when I was lost, no one heard my voice, pain, agony and plea..
My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..

Absolutely No regrets I keep towards the end of my unsuccessful life,
In return of the emotions and concern shown, from others I got a blunt knife..
My Mind told to me once that always try to be rational,
Yet I heard what my heart said and tend to be emotional..
