I

by nidhiyogeshwar

sometimes i want to be drowned

sometimes all i just want to sit down

under a shadow of a tree 

where I can be just nothin-but free,

far away from myself

to be myself -

and scream 

where i lost myself in all this life scheme,

sometimes tis hard to get belive

this is me having it all to be

seeking validation with low self esteem

somehow I'll manage not to be me,

this is how society  made it to be

feel me with all that you have in you

it'll get better not today but sometime

when you want to be YOU.
