THE SMILING STATUE Far from the brimming crowd And the music - TopicsExpress



          

THE SMILING STATUE Far from the brimming crowd And the music going mad and loud, Set apart from the long queue, Stands erect a smiling statue He knows you, he knows me And smiles on and on But no one knows the tears he sheds When everyone around is gone They call him a winner Still nothing for him to celebrate He just puts on a vague smile And an excuse ‘framed accurate’ He knows what he is, He knows where he is around With his head aiming at the sky And his feet rooted in the ground He stands erect, he smiles again Now humming a soft tune in rain He can’t afford being in the crowd Or enjoying the music going mad and loud The truth larger than life for a while, Hidden behind the secret envious smile No one in the crowd knows that, And that no one gossips about “He doesn’t need to fit in, who is born to stand out.” Courtesy : Shashank Jha (3rd year Undergraduate, IIT Roorkee)
