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.
