Bird Without Wings

i'm just  a bird surviving without wings in the wild

i'm no longer trying to be brave

just trying to collect pieces of me

after the fate killed me

i'm just a bird surviving without wings in the world

i'm a victim of 'choices' made by others

who influence my father to push me into hell

and take away my only escape route i needed to fly

This poem is part of "Fire in My Dreamland: A Poetry Series". I wrote this poem after a sudden realization struck to me that i have lost all of my potential with the loss of my dream. All my knowledge has gone to a complete waste. 

Mirrored Reality

I don't know how much and how much is not this telling truth

he got admission in a college

but I have a feeling its not what he dreamed of

I recall the glamorous life he lived

while studying to get that one spot

in a place he dreamed of

this reminded me of my own battle

and how I lost in it three times

I finally gave up on my dream

when no road led me there

only bringing me to an end

which was a cliff to end my life

This poem is part of "Fire in My Dreamland: A Poetry Series". This poem is a continuation of my thoughts that i had shared in my poem titled "Happy But Envious" in the year 2024. It was when i was finally taken down by my fate and had no other way to look for solace. The only possible thing for me to do now was to look into other people's window and capture the feeling of joy and imagine a world where i get to experience that and in doing so, i miserably failed to paint the feelings of the muse in that poem. Maybe his life appeared glamorous to me back then but now it is certainly not the case. 

Him But Not Me

god gave him the wings

god gave him the dreams to achieve

god gave me the wings

yet cut them mid-flight

maybe i flew too close to the sun

and didn't thought about things at all

maybe its what god intended to do

either way its the cruel choice i'm forced to live with
