Drown
Khadija nazar 2007 (Uttar pradesh)
Sitting on my table
Looking to the sun going down
I closed my eyes
Tears slipped along
As i open my eyes to the skies
trying to understand what went wrong
Why am i all alone
Another one came
Making my life a game
Third one fell like an art
Tearing me apart
I felt a hand on my shoulder
I turned around to find myself but a little older
It was just a blink when my eyes got blurred
And it all disappear
The fourth tear came flow'in
As my head fell down
Tired of myself, i saw myself drown
