Blameless
Nine months not hindered
The gift is delivered
Beautiful and innocent
Playful but decent
It is shown the path by the sire
Not minding its own desire
Everyday its mind expands
And has to meet its demands
Self discovery sets in
Beyond recovery
Everything it does gets upsetting
Abuse
Beatings
Torture in the name of love,
It endures before getting freedom
So called citizen of the nation
Filled with so much ambition
Filled with convition
Far from fiction
With the fear of failure
In this world of 'success'
We can not blame the products
When the system of production
Is rotten-
almost pungent
Many souls are weeping
Many creatures creeping
But creativity
Is the way out of captivity
"In as much as you bore me,
I can not as such adore thee
Let it get its choice
Let it have a voice
Pages flip away
Years slip away
But the truth must not be kept at bay
Unless a price we shall pay
In the days to come
So hard to overcome
Stop the control
And let the ball roll
Towards its goal
