Caretaker of an Abandoned Settlement.

by ammad-khalid

I keep a smile on, I tell the world all my dreams will come true. I try to keep my heart alive. I fill it with happiness, That's the least i can do. I'm a bursted star. I'm a fading call. I'm a caretaker of an abandoned settlement. My hopes have been erased. Don't tell me, Don't fight me, the fire in my heart, I can see my dream in ashes. My prayers are my cure, work and worry is on my mind. Come on, fight me. I have told the world all i wanted to say. I remember the time when i was afraid to say. I have no issues with anyone and none with myself. I still have belief in myself. I don't know why. I'm the waves crashing on a paper boat. I couldn't escape my own storm. My heart is riddled with thorns yet it refuses to tell its tale. I still live happy and laughing, knowing I'm a barren land. I'm a caged bird. I'm a caretaker of an abandoned settlement.
