Oh human

Can't you see!

I am precisely like you

I don't like being humiliated

I am no one's doormat

I'm person in my own right

When I was born

I was born innocent

Happy and free


And I want to live

A normal life

With dignity

Wouldn't you?


I realise there is a dawn

Waiting to be born

And that... after hardship... passes away

Ease will come to life... very soon


But... they inflicted so much

Pain and cruelty

Upon this little girl

And upon her homeland


The world is watching

Eyes open wide

In bewilderment

And disbelief


"What we are watching

Is a fiction movie

It's not really true"


While in exile

Puzzled... I agonize

Wiping tears off my saddened face

Searching around

Any one there?

Looking up... into sky

Did You hear my cries?

Did You witness the crime?

Suddenly

Knock... knock

A gentle tap

Yes, coming

Who is there?

Hope is here

Smiling at my heart

Standing by my door..
