Kritika Modi Poet Rhyme

Back To School

I remember,
Waking up by the alarm clock,
Hearing the sound of the door's knock,
To get up and gather courage,
Of shattering my comfortable cage.

I remember,
Reaching the school's gate at seven,
Still remembering my home like heaven,
In a dismal and disappointed state of mind,
Stability and happiness difficult to find.

I remember,
School teachers finding out students,
As they had to vent
The frustration of their lives
On innocent children, who were naive.

I remember,
Staying quiet the entire day,
As words could never find a way.
Crying out loudly in my heart
Looking at the destruction of my effort.

I remember,
Being bullied by my classmates,
Who hold a large space of hate,
In my heart which always learned to love
But, could never be at peace like a dove.

I remember,
Being laughed at by silly beings,
Not able to confront them for their wrongdoings,
Breaking and shattering a million times,
Still not forgetting to put a smile.

I remember,
Returning home like a warrior,
But, the one who had lost all his conquests.
Only if life would have been fairer
And God would have heeded to my requests.

I remember... everything.
