By Meera Davi Chalissery
You tear me apart
Gift me with the worst of dreams
Offer me a tearful memory
Scar me for life
I’m fine! I just want to fit in
You call me thin, fat,
Fair skinned, dark, short.
You pull out the last ounce of
Confidence I had
I’m fine! Cause I just want to fit in
I get a chance
To realise all that you have done
A moment of introspection!
I’m fine!
I just want to fit in.
Let’s hide my realization
In my glass menagerie.
I’ll gift it to you
Only to be shattered again
I just want to fit in.
