My fate

Today is yesterday and will be tomorrow
Another night of agony and a day of sorrow
I see you smiling, sleeping, my newborn child
Will you stay? Or, like others fly away?

My heart wrenches and eyes cry
When you are ashamed of being mine
I don’t understand what wrong did I do
After growing young, why away you flew

I try my best to give them a good life
But they continue to leave me behind
Part by part, I am drowned in blood
When sisters are raped and brothers are cut

I sob in silence as none reckons my pain
My efforts to please and bond end up in vain
Day by day, a part of me goes cold
Seeing my own drift away to dark roads

nice lines :)
There is no harm to fly, for birds are meant to fly..But, how far one might fly away, one should always try and return back to the nest, they call their home !
