IT's life

Stepping out of college
You enter a whole new world
Here, even if you don't want,
Responsibilities are hurled

You feel I should finish
The work given to me NOW
You stay late for a day
It ends up being a habit somehow

People take you for granted
This guy works late always
Little does the guy know
Gone are his early going days

The guy plans a movie
And wants to go soon
He thinks his long working
Will now be a boon

But, wait ! People see him going late
Assume he will go late again
Plan a meeting without asking him,
Long working became a bane !

How can he say , he can't
When he did stay late before
The thing which he had planned
Remained behind the door.

He rose the expectations himself
No one but he, is at fault
His plans got affected
Got more work in his vault

Just relax fellows
Don't try to impress
Just meet deadlines
Rest's the same, more or less

Finish off your job
And scurry home
Take a friend to eat
Find a place to roam

Just a simple change in the mindset
Is the hour's need
It's upto you to choose
Freedom or the impression greed
