The City

I have come to understand that, every city is equally great,
Because no matter whether you love it or hate it,
It still embraces you with open arms, It still shows patience and wins you over.
It gives you a home, a place to live in, a shelter under its sky,
Be it on its streets, or in its skyscrapers,
It gives you joy and sometimes sorrow
Elation, pain, celebration, fulfilment
It gives you a space to run your life,
Parallely, to a million others.
A space where you spend your days, make memories,
Fall & fly, grow and learn
An irreversible time that adds a permanent flavour to your life,
Friends, fraternity, foes & fascinating tales to tell,
Some days, you walk alone, some days, the city walks with you...
A city gives you opportunity & wisdom and all its resources,
Its air, food, water and keeps you alive,
But above all, every city has on offer, the best thing in the world,
And thats the people.
Eventually, whether you love it or hate it, respect it....
Because the city Loves You.
