As you grow
You hurt people
And you are hurt by them
They don’t intend
To hurt
Neither do you
It’s just about
Self protection
Which I don’t forgive
Neither to myself
Obviously, nor to others
And the
Dragons of life
Are sniffing behind my back
Close the doors
Make the walls
Isolate
Annihilate
Yet,
In my solitude
I see the innocent being
The child who wants to play and dance
And I see the same in others too
I stand up
Look deep in the eyes
Bone deep
And say hi to the child
In you
From the child
In me
