#When you send entries and they are rejected.So.
Lines along
the palm burnt, more than scorching sun over head,
Naked feet
on the ground swell in meat of ignorance,
Choice was
minimal and apprehension more, his life,
He picked
the next brick that lay across with no remorse.
His black
studded eyes took glances of the boy privileged,
Resided in
mansion well protected and preserved,
Stood over
the toes, to get a glimpse of his highness,
Through the
window merciless saw the child with school uniform.
Obsolete
dreams and future barricaded on the roads,
Bricks shone
brighter, heavier by each year,
Tears of
pain that flew, meant hunger disgraced,
His heart
hurt with sorrow of this situation.
Scribbled
the pencil, words faster than voices echoed,
His nose
touched the notebook in search of ignorance,
Not of wholesome
concentration, but lack of it,
Sound of
two elders pounding on each other.
His mind strayed
to the boy near the bricks,
Was exterior
pain same as the internal burden?
Eyes bore
tears of night full of hallucinations,
When voices
pitched further, he held his shirt tighter.
He didn’t
want a future but run away from all of it,
Peeped out
of window at the boy near the brick,
The trauma
in home had swallowed every bit of his life,
His heart
hurt with sorrow of this situation.
