Alley
"I took the roses...
Dressed my best...
Held my heart...
And said what i felt...
The answer i knew...
Would be a no or a yes...
But never i thought...
It would be the reason that came from my past...
Sad by the rejection...
I returned home...
Walking back from the same roads...
I came from...
As u walked down the dark alley...
My future was overshadowed by my past...
The light i wanted to walk towards...
Had been lost in the dark...
I wanted to be good...
But they labelled me as bad...
I tried to raise my hands for friendship...
But they all turned their backs...
Things never got easy for me...
But i made myself strong...
All i learnt from life was...
The problem wasnt wid u...it was in the peoples eyes"
