Old time's sake

It's been a decade and a hundred times,
when I see this movie, revel in rhymes,
a childish whim, or a sadness personal,
the movie is high school musical.

It can be so that I like the song,
but If I am so simple, you got me wrong,
I read between lines, see my self in role,
baggage of old times takes its toll.

For highschool as I imagine, it never was,
A wannabe cool kid, always  at loss
to figure out how to stand out,
and doubt always squeezed hope out.

He gave up easily, lacked all passion,
one counted amongst top, at bottom of his division,
his play lacked all style or fizz,
why this metamorphosis, one big quiz.

It lingers till today as heap of regret,
why cupid struck at such wrong moment,
for loss in love is like no other,
It was just you, others did'nt matter.

Neither social milieu nor ramification,
could deter him from having this odd imagination,
So when he gave up on her, he learnt it best,
It was then, when he gave up on rest.

It was the start of chain reaction,
that led to this sad situation,
this weight of cowardice kept him depressed,
always ruing, he should have expressed.

Till date this darkness creeps within
hence I take a movie and let me in,
with a melancholy desire to go back to past,
and it elates me enough to make me last.

And I battle my monster, a perpetual joust,
that time is gone but not all time is lost,
I can chase my dreams, make amends,
for things i gave up on, a happy end.

It just might be any other movie I like,
or a clutch of old memories on me tight,
or maybe a muse to design my future life,
concept so simple yet a cerebral strife.
