Bold

a poem which tells about two orphans who are bold to face this cruel world

I am thin,

i am black

and i have no home .

I sleep in parks

or outside shops,

until someone rides me away.

My mother

left me as i am a burden,

my father-

i don't even know who he is.

I have a sister

a small pretty sister

she is thin,

but fair,unlike me.

We sleep together every night,

i hold her close

to stop her from shivering.

Last night,

we slept in the railways,

nobody was around 

except for the flies !

All of a sudden

i hear some men

walk close to us

i got scared

and slept off.

When i woke up,

maybe a few hours later,

i found my sister missing!!

i searched here,

i  searched there,

i searched everywhere,

but she wasn't there !

Then i heard her cry

from the station officer's room..

i rushed to the door,

it was locked

but i knew she was in there

and she needed my help !

..i heard a manly voice

from inside

telling her to shut up

and listen to him 

I became violent

my eyes were filled with tears...

all i could do

is shout and cry for help !

No on came

there was no hope

i banged my head against the walls...

as i fainted hearing my sister's cry ...

The sun came out,

i can hear the trains come and go,

i jumped up

in terror..

where was she?

where was my sister ??

As i looked straight

near the tracks..

there was a crowd.....

i rushed

and pushed the people aside...

only to see my dead sister !

I couldn't cry..

there was no tears left...

A few hours before,

 i stood on the tracks

waiting for the next train....

Then i took a step back ...

and decided

that i'm going to take revenge..

not by diying but 

by living up

against this cruel world

filled with cowards

who are scared to face life !
