Farewell time - DoMS, IIT Madras (2008)

Say “GOODBYE” in “STYLE”

The time has come to say goodbye,
A time to cherish the moments that we enjoyed,
A new beginning that shall replace this life,
As we define our own paths to fame and strife.

Some noble men say to “add value”,
Some friends say to “multiply fun”,
But no matter what you try to do,
Do it like there is no tomorrow to come.

Sing a song to seek the love you desire,
Run a thousand miles to breathe fire,
Dance a move to free the soul of fear,
Laugh a joke till your eyes cry a tear.
Torture your mind to know your path,
Scream to empty the hate and wrath,
Flaunt your body to feel its grace,
Replenish your senses to prepare for a new race.

Don’t fall in love with your own self, if you won,
Don’t hate yourself because you failed,
The race is as long as you can run,
Failure lasts, if your thoughts prevailed.

Push yourself to cross your limits,
Be at peace; pay your bills and credits,
Cherish your friendship, even if it takes a while,
Say “goodbye” but do it in “style”.

- Robin Cherian.
