Praveen Kumar a crazy day it was things that i should not have said things that i should not have done had all been said and done in 5 minutes
i stormed out of the building with a view to run away run away to a place where no one can disturb
i wanted to spend 5 minutes alone i wanted to sit down and think of what i said of what i did
riding my bike with the wind behind me i rushed into the evening traffic hoping to set right certain things
blinded by fury clouded by sadness i was a maniac on the roads driving at the speed of light
i sped past everyone stopping nowhere i reached my destination a small little cafe in the middle of the city
escaping a chaotic and fast paced city i stepped inside a shangrila with no one to disturb with no one seemingly caring a dime i took my place in the corner placed my order and set about thinking about what i had done
5 minutes all it took for the gates of heaven to open up 5 minutes of madness now washed away by 5 minutes of realization
5 minutes it took to find myself once again 5 minutes is all it took for me to find life once again
5 minutes of crying out (loud) is all that was needed if only i thought about it all for a mere 5 minutes
a time of sorrow now washed away in just 5 minutes a lifetime full of happiness now back inside me in just 5 minutes

Note: There are those who think that boys/men should not cry. In my opinion, thats just a bunch of BS. All of us undergo the same emotions and the same feelings. While most men do not cry in public for fear of social ridicule, everyone cries at some point - whether it happens in public or in private. I do not want to get into a debate of should men cry or whether crying is only for women or whatever. I just wanted to merely highlight, that at times of sadness it is best to cry and get your emotions out. here is a link that explains the benefits of crying - http://www.helium.com/items/339767-scientific-research-supports-accuracy
Inspired by something i was a witness to.
