Lost Childhood!

She sat clasping the bars of her window...

Confined in her mud castle away from the world...

She saw the world pass by her..

Kids playing, girls giggling, boys shouting,..

She wanted to reach out and touch them..

Play, giggle and shout with them..

But her little hands couldn't reach very far from the bars..

Because there is nothing more sad than a lost childhood

She wanted to go out...

She wanted to ask why she cant...

But she had no right...

But she had no say...

Her innocent heart wondered why me...

'What is so wrong in the world for they keep me away?'

'All I can see is happy kids being curious..'

'Kids laughing, crying, playing, falling and then getting up..'

So she sat and sighed..

Smiled and tried..

And thought..

'If there is an evil, why not tell me about it?'

'If the world is indeed unsafe why not teach me how to be safe?'

'If the world is harsh, why let me remain fragile?'
 

'If I have to live here till I die..'

'Why not first let me know how to live?'

'Why shape me like a candle instead of making me iron'

'If the world out there is full of fire?' 

She wanted to reach out and touch the world..

Play, giggle and shout..

But her little hands couldn't reach very far from the bars..

Because there is nothing more sad than a lost childhood.
