Opening My Eyes Poem by deepanshi sabnani

Opening my eyes I woke up to the world,
Within the blink of an eye, I noticed my brothers fly,
I too opened up my wings, to touch the sky,
But soon I found a cage built around me,
The world was happy, the world was free,
Caught in the cage was beautiful me…

My innocence, me beauty, people did appreciate,
But a world of my dreams they failed to create,
I made them happy, I made them forget their pain,
No one observed how these red eyes rained,
The lonely heart sobbed, the lonely heart wept,
Crying in my loneliness, I felt to sleep…

I woke up to the dawn to find some change,
On looking closely, I found myself to be in another cage,
Shining in the silver mist, beauty all around,
Crushed was my painful voice under the merry sound,
The world was still happy, the world was still free,
The world was beautiful, but not for me…
