ARTWORK: TAIARA FARHANA TAREQUE

And then, you find a society full of spite

Never were you too skeptical,

Always sought for the brighter side

And then, you uncover something so tragic

You're disheartened by the fact that,

You once believed in magic

And then, childish beliefs you long to cremate

But distressed by the fact that,

Your gullible self still wants to create

And then, day by day you become stronger

Never have you predicted that,

Your delicate heart could bother you no longer

And then, people perceive you as cold-hearted

Little do they know,

They're the ones who made you so half-hearted
