LIFT ME UP
Neelam Yaker,
Itanagar
Holding onto a thin thread
Feels like life’s at the verge of end
It seems as if I was never welcomed
And I have to leave in a strange way
Voices are knocking at the door
It’s getting louder day by day
Destined to be exposed this way
And have to witness explosion
Soul captured in fantasies
Leading myself to a secret world
The only route to escape
Unaware of the hidden truth
Through all these years
I have endured pain
Thought of overcoming but couldn’t
So I am seeking for help
A single ray of hope in darkness
Can it light up my small world
For I have come across this far
Please bother to lift me up.
