A piece of sky is visible Window panes are half open A firefly peeped through the pores Sky is clear, clouds are white cotton candy. Night gives solace It oils wounded soul Don'ts are alien to darkness Sunlight brings restrictions Thunder, lightening, storms Even venomous beings are friends But dragon like sapiens are Watchful are the eyes without face. They drew lines How to laugh, what to wear, When to step out, to dance, to swim, to love. You are a child bearing chattel Cooking, serving, cleaning... permitted Should earn, no to spent The firefly began laughing Is this the life you dreamt? Who had cutoff your wings? The sky is up above Calling you to fly How? With broken wings? How? With fear and insecurity? Standing in the crossroads of violence? The firefly winks, All are equal Birth and death are same In between why chaos? Instead of perennial inferno of hatred Show sagacity Law alone is not enough No one is a master or a slave Nurture compassion, love empathy Embrace peace and harmony Until everyone mutates Freedom is a myth...
