  Chapter 1: I am still the same

  The day I was born,

  my mom used to say,

  there was heavy rainfall,

  it was the good sign of fortune,

  the yield of the crops,

  was so fine. . .even rain danced to my tune!!!

  The days came and went away,

  I am still the same,

  the boy in hat,

  with withered jeans,

  and black jacket. . .!!!

  Just size changed . . .!!!

  I used to go to a nearby school,

  white shirt,

  grey pant,

  a bit shorter than my length,

  a tie hanging around my shoulders,

  Don't be surprised,

  I don't remember exactly,

  it’s from the pictures,

  that are in

  Black and white . . .!!!

  mom,

  used to scold me day and night,

  "go and study"

  this was the only,

  rhythm of my life . . . !!!

  The seasons changed,

  as the size of my shoes changed,

  I am still the same,

  the boy in hat,

  with withered jeans,

  and black jacket . . .!!!

  Chapter 2: Class first, Section-D

  The same old school bag,

  And the same uniform,

  a tie hanging around my neck,

  a mud washed shoe,

  a white turned black, stinking handkerchief,

  put on my shirt with a pin,

  all have become things of past . . .!!!

  but I am Still the same,

  a boy wearing a smile,

  with a joy in heart,

  spreading the love all around,

  a cute innocent face,

  Without any ill thoughts,

  It’s all about the,

  story of the boy in Hat. . . !!!

  As I entered the class,

  It was written over the blackboard,

  It’s Class first, Section-D,

  At the very next moment,

  A lady with curly hairs, in her 30s,

  Entered into the class,

  All the noises got rectified by her,

  Hard voiced announcement,

  It’s the day of oral test for the whole class.

  I was also a bit shocked,

  Its Friday and test used to occur,

  every Monday of the week,

  How can she take prior of its schedule . . .!!!

  She started taking viva roll number wise,

  Even I was not interested in the class,

  Although I was pretending to be there,

  My mind was wandering around the girl,

  In the corner of my class,

  Third from the left window,

  Just right before the door.

  She was pretty, her eyes were blue.

  That was a clue from the god,

  That got entangled to my heart.

  It was her first day,

  I guess she was transferred from somewhere else,

  That may be moon or mars,

  Well, I was so little,

  I can’t understand the matters of heart,

  But I loved to play with her,

  I loved to dance with her,

  We used to have random fights,

  My hands and her hairs,

  My shirt, and her hands,

  Both snatched each other as I am falling apart,

  From a Hill Top. . . .!!!

  Still she was the same,

  The girl with blue eyes,

  I am still the same,

  The Boy in withered jeans and

  Black jacket,

  The Boy in Hat…..!!!

  Chapter 3: Falling Apart

  Years went away,

  We kept on playing all the way,

  I used to accompany her till her home,

  I used to follow her all the way long,

  She used to wear the same,

  White frock,

  With her curly hairs locked,

  The way she danced in the rain,

  All on way to her home,

  I keep on staring her,

  She was never so beautiful ever,

  She is just pretending to be human,

  I guess she is an angel from the sky,

  So pure,

  So innocent . . . .!!!

  It was the only moon in sky,

  Else it was just me and her,

  She never ever given a hint,

  If she love me,

  But I loved her from the first day,

  Of her sight,

  Ever since from first fight . . .!!!

  As we grow up,

  The things were changed,

  She is still my angel of dreams,

  Whirling in my mind,

  Taking all my time,

  But I am nowhere in her world . . . !!!

  I waited for her long,

  But she never came . . . !!!

  Days came and went away,

  I kept on waiting,

  With a hope she will come,

  At-least to fight,

  But there was nothing to fight,

  There was just a black sky,

  With some sparkling dots,

  A boy in hat,

  With empty bucket of his dreams . . .!!!

  Chapter 4: Being in Love: It’s all about the story of the boy in Hat!!!

  It was dim and somewhat dark,

  It was the sun,

  Shading away its cloths,

  It was the same boy,

  In blue jeans, black jacket,

  The boy, in hat!!!

  Walking down the streets,

  Making shots on the coke can,

  With the front of his weathered shoes!!!

  Although street lights were on,

  Glowing all the way he has to walk!!!

  Still it was dark all inside,

  All the way long!!!

  He waited for the girl,

  Who never came . . .!!!

  He was crossing the bridge,

  Over the river!!!

  Walking down the bridge,

  Keeping his head up!!!

  It was a clear sky,

  in the reign of Moon,

  Over the sparkling stars!!!

  It was all dark inside,

  with gleaming tears in his eyes,

  a hand that keeps on wiping out!!!

  Random thoughts were soaring in his mind,

  Still he was as silent as was the night!!!

  He was looking at the moon!!!

  As if he was all his culprit of his gloom!!!

  Murmuring in stillness of his voice,

  “When you made her to walk into my life

  then why she is so apart!!!”

  Chapter 5: The Lost - story o
f the boy in Hat!!!

  I keep trying to find myself,

  Across the day!!!

  and the day passes by!!!

  I keep on holding my nerves,

  The day long,

  and as the waves of your charm,

  comes across my mind!!!

  I am lost!!!

  I keep on telling everything to your shadow,

  And my mind only searches for you!!!

  At the end of the day,

  I console myself,

  I find myself,

  As if I am ‘Lost’!!!

  I keep trying to find myself,

  across the day!!!

  And the day passes by!!!

  The day and night,

  I keep on dragging myself,

  Across the hedge of dull and bright,

  The every face passes by,

  Makes me realize,

  It’s not you again,

  Again same moon,

  is staring at me from the sky,

  It’s the same breeze that takes my paper planes,

  High in the sky,

  I write ours initials on the wings,

  With a heart and an arrow,

  As it flies away, my heart goes high!!!

  As it crashes down,

  my world of dreams goes upside down!!!

  May be there will be a tomorrow,

  With everything around you,

  Might be this crazy heart,

  Won’t be beating for you . . . .!!!

  Might be that day, will be end of my day!!!

  There will be no day that will again pass by!!!

  I know, you never know,

  How I feel about you?

  Thinking all the day,

  My crazy belief,

  That 1 day u will come!!!

  Keeping head up,

  With gleam in my eyes,

  Putting up a smile,

  On my face,

  Trying to being myself,

  I just walk around you,

  As I find ‘Lost’ myself,

  Just within you!!!

  It’s all about the story,

  The boy in blue jeans,

  And Black jacket!!!

  It was the story of,

  The boy in Hat!!!

  Chapter 6: the girl who never came!!!

  It was warm inside still,

  So cold was the street,

  A boy with a hat,

  black jacket on his rough jeans,

  It was the time just after the rain,

  He waited for so long,

  But she never came,

  He cried for an hour,

  As he started, the rain started,

  As he was sobbing and leaning down,

  As if god of the rain

  was seeing his pain,

  But the girl of the boy in hat,

  Never came!!!

  The boy was in love,

  That she never understood,

  For him all his world,

  used to walk with her,

  in her absence, it seems,

  as if he is the only one on this earth,

  in his entire solitude,

  Fighting with the night,

  Changing sides whole night,

  He knows very well,

  She is just a nightmare for his sight,

  As he was walking down the streets,

  Lost in her dreams,

  He was staring at the sky,

  The star that was only in the sky,

  In between the clouds,

  in the north of the sky . . .!!!

  A vehicle came from south,

  dithering on the street,

  lost its balance,

  hit the boy with the hat,

  The boy was lying down on the street,

  A blood shed away from his head,

  Although he tried for a long,

  but his eyes were closed,

  his heart beats were slow!!!

  All the long way till the end,

  His eyes were searching for the girl,

  who never came . . .!!!

 

 

  Chapter 7: As she walked in!!!- Story of the boy in Hat!!!

  It was the time; I have waited for so long!!!

  She was in white!!!

  As if the heaven has bestowed,

  All its brightness on her!!!

  Her curly locks of hair,

  Covering her face,

  Her polished nails,

  Shining like engrossed stars,

  Yet she was so close,

  We were apart!!!

  As she walks in!!!

  The magic of her presence,

  Played its part,

  It was just before the dawn,

  She was walking across the lawn,

  As she passed the flowers,

  They were fooled, as if they thought,

  her charm as the sunshine of just after the dawn,

  The shape of the bud soon,

  Changed,

  All flowers, were no more buds,

  They were at their best,

  even my heart was coming to rest,

  It was the time; I have waited for so long!!!

  The boy in hat,

  Standing at the corner of her,

  Majestic gate,

  His weathered jeans,

  His shirt was tweaking the gaps,

  In his black jacket,

  He was not same,

  The girl still was in her own world,

  Unaware of his sheer heart,

  That was only beating for her,

  The boy found the girl with the,

  Pink envelop,

  Revealing the heart with a cross,

  It was the letter he had sent her,

  Last evening!!!

  As she came across the engraved letters,

  On the paper,

  A smile was stretching across her face,

  Through the filtered lights of the moon,

  Somehow,

  The boy recognized her acceptance,

  For his love,

  Yes the boy in hat,

  Jumped across the gate,

  Pushing his head up,

  Staring at the sky,

  Through the gaps in cloud,

  Sneaking the light of moon,

  Patting his feet’s,

  While in air,

  He thanked god,

  He was walking in zig zag,

  Singing love song,

  He usually sings for her!!!

  A drop of water,

  Fallen across his cheeks,

  The face became dark,

  In expression,

  He was not the same,

  But the very next drop,

  He tried to hold in his hand,

  It passed through his palm,

  There was no earth,

  Under his feet,

  He soon realized,

  He is not the same,

  Soon he found,

  The boy on lane,

  The rain was so prompt,

  It was the rain that was crying on his behalf,

  The boy in hat,

  Was lying in mid of the street,

  He was wet,

  His hat was no more on his head,

  He was no more the boy,

  In hat,

  He was wearing the hat,

  Since the girl,

  had said-“you look fab with your hat”

  The words were still recounting in his dead heart!!!

  The boy in the hat was no more,

  His love has just ended before the start!!!

  As she walked in the story of the boy,

  He left the world!!!

  It was the time; He had waited for so long!!!

 

  Chapter 8: Soul fights back for the Love: story of the boy in Hat!!!

  The dark was the night,

  The dark were the expressions of the boy,

  in hat,

  rain was, at its peak, r />
  The boy in hat,

  was shocked,

  although there was no heart beating inside,

  his feelings were coming out of his eyes,

  Water was not only coming out of the sky,

  but also from his eyes,

  He was still not able to make out,

  He was still in dilemma,

  What the hell is going out of the life!!!

  He ran towards her house, 

  She was holding the letter,

  In between her arms,

  He was standing in the corner,

  Right beside the majestic gate,

  Girl was walking in the lawn,

  Lost in love,

  She was in her own world,

  And the boy in his own,

  She has just came to know,

  What the love is all about!!!

  A tear studded smile spread across his face,

  It was only his love engrossed in her arms,

  The Girl was kissing the letters again and again,

  Singing the same song,

  That boy used to sing for her . . .!!!

  He walked towards the girl,

  The girl went across without noticing him,

  What the god has written for them,

  Neither was it known to him,

  Nor her!!!

  Although he was crying deep inside,

  But he was happy to saw her smile!!!
