Caprice Poem by Omer Shahid

So what if life never gave you a chance;
So what if you never got a stage to dance;

Just let the world say that you're wrong;
Just keep on singing your happy song.

For everything you did, you were stopped;
for every word you said, you were mocked;

that's what we get for doing our part;
that's what we get for showing, we have a heart.

And I can sense that you feel it too;
I'm not the only one feeling blue;

Wish I could escape it, wish I could fly;
But they say you can't rid it, until you die!

But then I think, hey, why to care;
They were the ones who left me there;

There was a border, which they did cross;
And I don't care now, for their loss;

And I don't care if they think I'm wrong;
I'll keep on singing my happy song!
