The Nervous Heart..!

                                      
Heart goes all edgy taking a tour of it’s memories
All happy and blissful of it’s childhood memories
It craves for the tranquility of the mind and soul
The happy hours despite of perplexities and gloom

It wonders how things worked in the order reversed!
A mature, dedicated, strong-willed little kid
Waiting to grow up to a responsible achiever
Having learned the twists and turns life could throw, earlier

Little did it know it was all just the starters
The heart already had an overloaded appetizer
Startled about the future- main course
With drooping enthusiasm required at the hour

The nervous heart wonders of the absence of vigor
High then and low now has questioned the guide
None of the rules seem to be working these days
Anxious to know if it is on the right way!

Happy a little but a little more tense
To embrace life with it’s own new blend
The eager growing kid, now an adult :( wants the time to stop
As the heart feels impassive to the ageing hour

Ready for new challenges, lazy to work on them
Hating the time for being such a shrewd
Mixed emotions but more of nervousness
With butterflies in tummy as the heart ages a year again.
