I Don't Want To Forget

ENTRY #20: Inner Child

I've been naive for so long

and the world took my innocence.

It killed the 'idealist' inside of me.

It was my murderer.

Even a kin

couldn't understand

the uniqueness within me

so they chose,

they chose to ignore the fire

of curiosity in my eyes

and the reflection of the world within it.

Instead, they trained me to kill

using terror and threats

and the standards of the society

yet I could not understand,

why should they force someone

to be something they are not?

Why do I have to hide my feelings and thoughts?

Why do I have to do all the things that most people do?

Then, I realized that

I am not that special;

that, my thoughts are worthless and ignored;

that, not everything could be solved

by kindness and understanding;

and people will always remain weak, fragile and greedy.

Yet, I could never contain and hide

that little innocent girl in me,

the one with enormous imagination

and hope

and not a single person could even see it.

So... how often do I feel alone and misunderstood?

Always... for I was born with it.
