Slowly awaken, Fast asleep An apprentice at feelings A ****** at love.
Lively but lonely Friendly yet fragile! My heart pounds to music, Yet stays calm and wild!
They tagged it "Sentimental" He called it "Most bright" God marked it "A wild flower, Fallen from the sky!"
To the reddish mountains, And the muddy drops, My life - disdained Yet it seems to glow!
Amidst the bright darkness, Of this lonely night, I pen this to highlight The flights of my fights!
How my life looks vain! My birth - a disgrace, I was born a queen, Yet, slavery I face!
A burden to my shoulders, A load to my sons, A grief to my siblings, A fun for everyone!
An antique - cheap in nature A painting - known by none A sculpture - made of sores At the hands of asylums!
My vision isnt blurred, Its the world that has flunked. Yet, they call me "Funny" And I call them "Junk!"
Written on 11th August, 2002. The way the poem was named is hilarious. My roommate then, told me that one night I was woke her up from sleep only to ask her, "Haven't you got enough tears?' and go back to sleep again. It was senseless. And so is the poem. Hence I thought the title is apt!
