Death, oh death, your sting cuts deep, for you have taken my parents from me when we were least prepared. Their absence has left a void in my life, and I am engulfed in sorrow and memories.
Once, I knew happiness, but now it feels like a distant memory. My nights are plagued with nightmares, and the thought of my parents brings tears to my eyes. My destiny seems uncertain, and my life feels empty, as I navigate a world filled with hatred and indifference.
I am alone in this world, an orphan adrift in a sea of families. Who will care for me now? Who will pay my tuition fees, hold my hand, or nurse me when I am sick? Who will offer me comfort and hope in times of despair?
There are no bedtime stories, no goodnight hugs or morning greetings from loving parents. I am left to fend for myself, shouldering the responsibilities of adulthood without guidance or support.
I yearn for the love and warmth of my parents, wishing they could wake up to cook my favorite meal or teach me valuable life lessons. Without them, I feel lost and vulnerable, like a ship without a compass.
All I desire is someone to love me, to offer guidance and assistance in this journey called life. Am I asking for too much? Or is it that no one sees me, the orphan, as worthy of their love and care?
But despite the pain and loneliness, I cling to hope, believing that someday, I will find the love and belonging I crave. Until then, I remain but an orphan, longing for the embrace of family and the comfort of home.
