Winds of Change

21 11 8
                                    

The devil whispers in my ears

Taking me to another sphere

Riding on the helm of my fallen self

Stopping me from voicing

The dangerous questions

Preconceived notions

The societal rules

Burying me whole

In the dying pastures

And asking me to make it green

Make it gleam

Never caring about my interests

And my wants

Burying me, and

Burying me whole.

So I dig a deep tunnel

Deep enough to shove

All their plunder and slander

Into the fiery pits

So that one day

They could grow

From the grounds of spring

And shower new meanings

Sprinkle pollens of greetings

As the butterflies swayed

Into the winds of change

And the branch-less brown leaves

Rotted on the ground

To give way

To the new buds of future

To the new buds of change.

A/N: It is from within us that the change must come first. It is we, who have to take the first step disregarding the negatives and accepting ourselves.
