did not get admission, was in despair,
thought it would be nice if I got in here,
Its been 3 years now since am here,
what shall happen now is the fear,
as we end our college life and enter the world,
out of this world of fantasy, right into reality,
soon we will face the brutality,
will soon disappear in the crowd,
we should, we are supposed to standout,
why are we then so skeptical,
about what the future beholds for us,
it hasn’t struck us yet,
but we shall soon move away and forget,
our last few weeks in Xavier’s,
and we do not feel a thing,
do you realize we are evaporating?
Acting busy, running around, tight schedules,
Busy in our own worlds,
Care a damn about the world,
Ready to go out there and start making money,
Is this what all we came here for,
Is this what Xavier’s has taught us,
are we really just money –minded?
Looking for jobs,
Going for every interview,
Ready to fly out of the country,
Let’s just sit back for a few moments,
Relive those memories,
Those happy days of college life,
Our first year of ignorance and enthusiasm,
Second year of victory and seniority,
Third year of responsibility,
These days shall never return,
Our days of fun are ending,
Life’s going to get boring and monotonous,
What we end up doing later,
Not many of us have a clue about that,
But we all want to succeed in life,
That’s what it has come to,
We took a lot from this college,
Do we have anything to give in return?
be a good citizen of this country,
and make your parents proud,
that would be the gift, Xavier’s deserves from all of us,
a humble request from a fellow Xavierite,
I hope I do it too and do it right,
Enough I’ve said, now let me get back,
To prove myself and create a name,
And let them feel proud of me,
I shall come back, Xavier’s will call me.
- a soon-to-be-Ex-Xavierite !
