Changed

Brought up in a different place,

Life I learnt in my own ways,

Felt every moment, enjoyed every day,

Never cared about my future that lay.

Then, one day my life changed,

Ahead of me lay many-a-twist,

Had to survive in this new place, had to clear this mist,

Everything I did was in the bad list.

Everyone blamed me for who I was,

Even if it wasn't my mistake,

People put my reputation at stake.

Anger in their eyes glowed red,

Because of them I cried myself to bed,

I wished that such a life shouldn't be led.

I missed me home,

I missed that dome,

I missed everyone back there,

My life got stuck in this dirty lair,

I couldn't come out, I didn't dare.

A fragile fawn I was back then,

Before I entered this cruel den,

Horrible! my life was made,

Scared of all the darkness that laid.

I tried to run away, I couldn't.

I tried to negotiate, but they wouldn't.

I thought of fighting back, but I didn't.

I prayed to God everyday,

Please O Lord! show me a way,

God got tired, on me he quit,

No path for me was lit.

I gave up, no hope was left in me,

My cage wasn't opened, I wasn't left free.

I breathed me last in this devil's cage,

As a ghost now, I write this page...
