When I was a kid,
I used to spend many hours alone,
Eyes-filled and heart-broken,
This way I have grown!
I was a child, I wanted love too
And someone who could be my backbone !
But all I got always are the terms,
“Quarrelsome, extra, ugly, low-face tone!
Then I found a dumb friend,
Everyone call it “moon”!
He used to stay with me all night,
I used to wait for Him whole noon!
I told Him everything about me,
He never judged me soon!
Like the whole world did,
He never treated me as His misfortune!
He never said a word to me,
Still wiped my tears almost every night!
He took away my feeling of inferiority,
And showed me everything bright!
He protected a tender-heart of a child,
From exploitation as a great knight!
In this world of extreme darkness,
He gave me “THE FIRST LIGHT!”
THANK YOU.
