Time for a Time-out

Today I am at a stage again
Where in life I need to decide
Should I go with what my heart says?
Or to expectations yet again I should abide?

My heart tells me to fly
To unknown and adventurous destinies
Expectations tell me to stay put
And handle responsibilities

Many-a times there are cases
Where you know the heart is wrong
But today, I know for sure
That the call from within is true 
and That's why it's so strong

I know that if I keep on this way
I'll be able to stand in poise
But for how long will I be content
With this forcefully made choice?

I may attain milestones
By going ahead the easier way
But when I've reached the top there
Will my tears of sadness (and not joy)
not give me away?

Knowing that we travel this road 
Just one time
Should I not follow
The inner voice that's divine?

May be I just need to let go
of everything for a while
And look at the cerulean sky
With a neutral smile

May be I just need to stop 
The endless thoughts and doubts
And may be write a few words
to let my heart out…
