Once upon a time, I walked free
Bereft of fear of my destiny
Valiantly, I once roamed the land
Strutted and danced, hand in hand
Couldn’t decipher the human ploy
Killing us, you seek divine joy
Why you hurt me, I cried
Was I not once your pride?
Bullets showered from the gun
You hunted us one by one
All this for the greed of my horn
I wonder why I was ever born
The dismal sound fills the sky
Under the azure sky, silently I cry
Day and night, I cheat death
The weary body now has resigned to its fate
I want to live, give me no pain
I want to walk free once again
Valiantly I want to roam my land
Strut and dance, once again hand in hand
once again hand in hand, I want to walk free. good write , thanks. I invite you to read my poems and comment.
