I Wanted Poem by C.K. BiTe

I Wanted
.
.
I wanted freedom, and I was constrained
I wanted blessings, and I was given bane
I wanted to fly, and I was pinioned
I wanted to rule, and I was minioned
I wanted love, and I was given spite
I wanted to be dauntless, and I was given fright
I wanted friends, and I was left alone
I wanted help, and I was left to moan
I wanted to speak, and I was muffled
I wanted to be great, and my faults were culled
I wanted to be apart from the crowd
And I was made a part of the crowd.
