Penned down

Comments welcome. Who will put him behind bars, This devil who has stolen a child's innocence How can others hear my muted cries When they are denying this demon's presence? I was a child, fluttering happily around Your lust did devastate me! I am ashamed and wallow in guilt; When you, the horrendous culprit - roam free? Wake up from your slumber my parents, Dismiss not my tales as creations of fantasy. The 'uncle' that you trust as a friend, Finds me as a target who comes easy, This world full of sins and thorns, I have lost the sense of oneself. When will be the justice meted out To many other exploited children as myself.

My day refused to begin- The darkness was too much to let go; The flights of fantasy held too much Than the mundane reality. My day refused to begin- I clinged on to the fading fantasy; My chirping pets trying in vain to tell me their tales of y'day. My day refues to begin- Codes to write and chores to do And unexplored opportunities: Cant you five me two minutes? All until mom calles out Good Morning And gives that invaluable hug. Yes, now my day has begun.. And it refuses to end. I love you mom

Blades of grass towering over me, With greenery till my eyes can see. Untouched solitude; without the future A tete-a-tete with mother nature. Green mountains teeming with wildlife, Unexplored with mysteries rife. The grey sky screaming aloud with light - The thunderous rain to arrive this night! And I would get to savour every moment Of this heart-warming event.. Rather than watching the rain drizzle From the confines of my cubicle.
