I grew up old and lost my sight, I wish to see things more clear. But I guess there is loads of dirt on my eyes. I grew up old to a new world , A world they warned me about in story they read me at night. I grew up and things teared apart, And one day I woke up to the sunlight that showed me the darkness in the world of plight. I wish to stand on my feet, But I guess learning to walk wasn't just enough, They taught me all, But I grew up to someone I wished to be, Rather than the girl of their dream. I know I'm strong enough to fight, But I'm weak on my knees, you see! Cause I grew up with love, And dream of the ones who took great care of me. I question everynight to myself 'is this me?' Or what they wish to see, Confused just like you , And once more I cry myself to sleep. -priyanka sethi
