The Orphan Poem by Dharthisha Naidu Naidu

If only I could feel her touch, if only I could hear her voice,
If only I could see her smile just once, and hear her say I love you.
But fate played a fatal role in my life.
Scream in silence, no one hears my plea, I never show emotions,
I want to be loved, I want to be understood, want to be given a chance.
I hide under my low drawn hood, My mind in confusion,
my thoughts disarray my emotions in tatters yet I hide all.

I am an Orphan, desperate to find a way out of this trap
it’s an everlasting ocean of heartache and cries,
I am pleading for help but no one can hear me.
I am reaching out for solid grounds something to hold onto.
There is emptiness inside of me and all around me Solitude,
I am alone, I am an Orphan.
Open wounds deep in my heart bleeding,
crying torn apart lonely an helpless and all confused as to why I am so unwanted,
been shifted from home to home,
never one to hold me and tell me I love you,
crying tears of aggravation I call out in desperation,
my broken wings I lay on the ground, wings which was once used now of no use.
Now scars of mourning cuts at my soul,
I will never be healed,
I will never be whole, crying out hopeful wanting to be heard,
tired of just existing a thing that once occurred,
and so I cry and turn and moan Reality strikes again I am alone I am an Orphan..
