Thornbirds

Walking through a thick jungle I never had a reason to smile Thought life is full of grumble With only thorns pricking every mile. I walked in fear Prayed “O God I wish you were here.” If someone could wipe those tears Tell me “ Fear not your future is not hazy but clear .” When will this society accept me Stop the abuse and respect me Recognize my talent ain’t disown me Say not “you are stoic “ but embrace me I am a daughter a sister a friend I crave for a society where norms aren’t biased or opportunities won’t end. Name it an illusion or my blinded vision But when I stand in front of a mirror I see myself clad in an armour With unwavering faith and achievable mission A blessed world filled with love and laughter.
