Under the ground
With darkness around,
I was locked and grounded,
By my protectors, my guardians,
In the gardens,
Discarded with my opinion.

I am a necessity,
A thing to show off to the society.
Expected from me is a Phoenix-like rise,
I will fail as I burn to ashes and mix with dust;
As plants are meant to lean on earth's crust,
Only rising when it rains love.

I wait and wait to be soaked,
To know that my presence is not cloaked.
Staring in the nothingness, I think-
'I am just a little seed,'
Large figures and wrinkled humans pay me no heed.
They tell me "Shut up! You are only a kid."

You cannot tell me I don't know what love is. Do not tell me who to love and how to love. My heartbreak comes not only from my soulmate but you too. People affect me. Their emotions do too.
