Now I Wish To Change The Tide



Experimenting has been your favorite play
From childhood till today.

You experimented on heights of being scared by throwing at me
All ugly looking creatures on this earth.

Filling my Doll’s House with filthy earthworms
But I endured.

Spooked me peeping through my window at night
Dressed in white. But I endured.

Burdened me with all your notebooks when I had my own
burdened. But I endured.

You could never imagine the height of pain I felt
Watching you flirt with every girl available around.
But I endured.

You disappearing with your friends for months altogether
& never bother to call me once. But I endured.

You considered me anything other than ugly, stupid & useless
While the world had a different opinion. But I endured.

Confiscated my freedom while you enjoyed yours
But I endured.

You can never reach the depth of my endurance
You would rather die trying
But things are going to change
Cause I am tired of crying.

I am looking at the new Horizon wide
Since now I wish to change the Tide.
