Alert

Formatted by Neeharanshu Vilas Vaidya.

There you go

My ears pop up

As I hear some one whisper 

I become alert 

And I alarm you

It's a quiet evening 

And you are relaxing 

Sometimes engrossed in work

Or watching your favourite TV show

You pay no heed to me,

Sometimes even get mad at me

Asking me to shoo away

To maintain your peace of mind

I am anxious for you

And doing my job

The job that defines me

And perhaps you surely expect from me

I am wondering now

Utterly confused ...

I have adjusted my world for you

I do as you say

I eat what you give

But this one is my identity 

Let me alarm you

Let me disturb you

I do so only when needed

Maybe at the wrong time.
