I Am a Stone

I cried you merely watched, 
You even called me cry baby
You didn't do anything to end my agony
After years of suffering, I slowly changed myself
Ended all my desires and expectations
Now you have become caring
Now you ask me what you want on your birthday
I need nothing now
My heart now a stone, without feelings, emotions
Just carrying on waiting for death
Your care and love doesn't stir any feelings in me
Nothing can change me.

Hello Rama, it is sad that the women in India do not have a home of their own. Jobs here as well are hard to find. Many people unemployed. because of the virus. Enjoy your day my friend.
