In the end
Preetika Chatterjee 2009 (Mumbaj)
• In The End •
I thought the world was my friend
But in the end it's my worst enemy
I thought friends made me feel lively
But in the end they made me feel deathly
I thought he made me feel special
But in the what was I for him? Just a disgraceful visual?
I thought I'll make memories with you
But in the end you flew away even before I could
I thought parents were our secret keepers
But in the end they're the people secrets are kept from
I thought I'll live a beautiful life
But in the end I held a bloody knife
I thought I was happy as a dove when I looked up at the bright sky
But in the end I cried like a wingless angel in the cold dark nights
I thought everything would go my way
But in the end the world just kissed me goodbye
I felt like I lost everything
But did I ever own anything in the first place?
