He wanted not to hear it,
he knew he had failed,
he wanted it to get rubbed off of his name,
he wanted never to be linked to it,
he wanted people to forget it,
how he never tried and failed,
he wanted no part of the world,
in which a single soul knows about his failure,
he wanted to start things afresh,
he wanted to try once more,
he wanted to succeed,
he wanted to be happy,
he wanted others to be happy due to him,
he wanted others to smile looking at him and not frown,
he wanted others to help him and not walk away,
he wanted all this because no one wanted him.
He was selfish, cruel, unkind, careless, strict, egoist, unmindful in his youth,
he thought what he did was nothing but just RIGHT & PERFECT,
and, now when he looks back,
deep within he knows, he had been nothing but all WRONG,
and for that his whole life is a failure and now he is old,
no one cares for him just like he didn’t in old times,
now he is alone, diseased, with no one at his bedside,
waiting to leave this world and make it a better place for others.
