The Reason Why Poem by Ishita Dasgupta

You say I am not the same person,
You met one year back,
You say I have changed so much
I seem to be living a lie.
I am like this because people
Don’t want me fly,
I try to bring smiles
Talk of fairies and stars in the sky,
But I have not lost myself,
Because I know the reason why-

I fight with you and I argue more,
You wish I would only shut up,
You say I am dominating,
When I only speak my mind.
I say that there is an end
To the beginning of the path,
Two sides of the same coin,
And yet you ask, “Why? ”
You never knew the real me
I have just changed my way of life.
