Growing up, competed with my cousin In gatherings, she could dance and sing When talent and beauty meets She became a crowd favorite From that day I doubted my existence And slowly walked away from the “audience” Then, Lonely became my new name Will I win in this life’s game? I have eluded every conversation Pen and paper became my companion Talking to people is not my passion And even chose a mundane profession Tried many times to break free Reverse the drama of my personality But it’s like holding water in your hand Change maybe easy, perhaps with a magic wand
