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. 14.04.2021 Submitted to - Contest Name - Writing Prompt - Ache Sponsor - Constance La France

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.
