Where Is My Home? Poem by Vani Agarwal

Where Is My Home?

Rating: 4.3


I am lost can you please help me?
I am locked in a cage someone set me free!
But even if you free me where will I go?
I will have to hide under your cemented shadow.
But if I collect myself again, will you lay on me some light?
Then maybe I can lift my head and ask for my right.
Where is my home, I would ask,
Maybe you'd tell me when you get rid of that mask.
I know you wouldn't tell me, you just can't,
For my shouting out to you, for you is a chirpy chant.
I am tired of living in this nightmare,
I want back my home, I want my share.
I want back my house, I want back my tree,
Which is surrounded my greenery and has dancing leaves.
I want I want back my house that is lost in your dust,
I want back my home, whose boundaries are made of trust.
But the truth remains that I depend on you and you depend on me,
So please stop and listen, why do you flee?
I want a voice to tell you something,
That I ask for my home, it is not a song I sing.
So let's hold hands, god has made us one,
Let's rebuild our world and not stop until done.
Let's make the world a better place once more,
Let's open a new chapter, open a new door!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This poem describes the feelings of all those lovely animals residing on Earth without a voice. Through this poem, I am trying to send the message to all readers that an ecosystem survives only when there is a balance, as this is our home and theirs as well.

All that is lost is not yours. Keep your relations in your strong hold. Enjoy the pain of life as it is faithful. Excellent Emotions. Keep up.
