A portrait from childhood


A random sketch from childhood. Few things do not let go of  us. Childhood is one of them. The portrait that I had drawn has always been dear to me as I had drawn it when in a dilemma about whether to absorb everything around me or to close my eyes to the world of thought that enveloped me.

Tomorrow is all about destiny. Till then just let me be me. Let tomorrow be yours, not for me. Till then let me be me. Life will be life tomorrow. In dreams I want to live, dreams are all I want to see. Till then let me be me. You want to be someone else. In a fake world you wish to be. I gift myself to you, just let me be me.
