IT'S NOT ABOUT THEM


 I know,                                                                         

I lived a hopeless life

With no dreams and wishes.

I walked a journey of no success.

        I,

At some point became a loser in the eyes of those succeeding before me. 

I became a joke 

And always on the lips of others.

They tried destroying me 

With their words,

I became stronger

And realised that ,

change isn't sold 

But comes from the inner self

I look poor

though I'm rich in goals
Like clouds ,

I stand still unshaken.
