Don’t you feel horrified?
Walking alone those strange landscapes;
Uninhabited, deserted, untrodden…
Don’t you get bored sometimes Sachin?
To eye the sky and watch the stars shine,
And feel the wind around,
And see the seasons change around you;
While all along standing like a statue,
With no one to keep company.
It’s the fate people like you are doomed to–
The solo status!
(Perhaps I may be wrong:
The muse of cricket might pay an occasional visit,
To have a communion with her most beloved son.)
Stray a little Sachin.
There you see a pinnacle.
Ascend it.
And give company to another man in the planet
Who suffers the same loneliness–
A certain man named Roger Federer!
Just out of curiosity may I ask you a favour, Solo Men?
Tell me immortals how do you experience the unknown,
That we mortals dread and covet at the same time!

but sometimes it is a great relief
