I am leaving,
but the shores of the sea,
shall always remain wet.
I have already packed my bags,
and I am ready to go.
For my next life, I am all set.

Tried hard to put your name high,
dear mom and dad,
but unfortunately, I failed.
I shouldn't have been your son,
rather a criminal,
far away in some island,jailed.

I feel sorry for all the people,
whom I let down always,
I swear, I tried to give my best.
But fate had,
something else for me,
I wasn't better than the rest.

Mom, dad I come to you again,
with my bag pack and luggage,
to touch your feet for the last time.
Yes, I know I have been a disgrace,
I am so sorry to have come here,
and to have crossed the line.

Never a day had come,
when you both never fulfilled my wishes,
but all the expectations,
you had from me
I broke them like,
broken dishes.

I am sorry to walk away,
keeping my promises, incomplete.
But I think it's now time to leave.
And the shores of the sea,
shall always remain wet.
For my next life, I am all set.
