Dr. Upma A. Sharma Poet Free verse

See Through My Eyes

See through my eyes






Cheerful faces 
with my first cry,
Born into this world
my mother's pretty face,
Forgetting all the pains 
thrived with all grace,
Saw through my little brain
everyone in a rat race,
Hurt, insult and abuse,
world was no holy place,
Kids and women killed
bloodshed their real face,
Lavish spending on wars
while hunger begged at sacred place,
Brutal murders and rapes
of humanity, law and jail breaks,
Mother Earth exhausted
of its natural resources,
Selfishness, greed and cruelty
I am so much scared,
Days are dark 
and nights awake,
Take me to a safer place mother
maybe back into your womb,
Afloat in peace with my eyes closed !
