i am i kid after all

I always dreamt of quite streets.
A peaceful sky,
With birds fluttering
All around
I dreamt of walking
Carelessly
With always affection
In a strangers eye.

I hoped to not know
What fear means.
I prayed never to see
Death through a third eye.

I am young
I am feeble.
I am a kid after all
But I am strong
No masked fellow
Would deprive this honour
From me.

You could come a million times.
Rob away my smile
But you could not rob away
From me
my will.
My freedom.
My fight towards unifying
My countrymen.

You might come
Thinking to divide us.
People like you are demons
In a human disguise.
Humans don’t do things
Which you do.

Humans don’t kill
In the name of god.
No god can be happy
With you eliminating
His own very creations.

When will you realize.
When will we
Open our very own eyes.
How long will we question
The men in white?
Or be happy with the green ?
Its time to stop questioning
Its time to rise.
Its time to rise against this
Masked tides.

How many more
Kids like me
Loose their smiles?
Or themselves
before they could even learn
How to write.

Is peace just a mere
word?
Will I see more of death?
Will I have to always scrub the red blood?
Is this the way we all
Have to tread.

When would this end?
The loss cant be repaired.
How many more of Mumbai.
Delhi, jaipur…
Would I have to see?

I always dreamt of quite streets.
A peaceful sky,
With birds fluttering
All around
I dreamt of walking
Carelessly
With always affection
In a strangers eye.

I hoped to not know
What fear means.
I prayed never to see
Death through a third eye.

I am young
I am feeble.
I am a kid after all
But I am strong
No masked fellow
Would deprive this honour
From me.
