It was the start of the lock down It felt like I was a bird in the cage I don’t know why! but I broke down in tears A month felt like ages in the cage People read Hymns and prayers But there wasn’t a change Those empty streets looked excited But those roads were still without feet It really seemed unsighted like everything changed in few hours Those roads outside… And the blossomed flowers Sitting near the window only I could see was the nature that Beautified I missed the fun I had Those School days… Those stupid friends who made me mad… Those Summer vacations in Mays… Were now Just memories… Looking down, those days felt like centuries… Now I felt myself drowned I could seriously relate this life With the caged animals… All the world was in strife It felt like I weren’t human, instead Reptiles and Mammals I finally decided, to make it habitual and comfort myself, The rules… now I had abided Then I looked at the books in the shelf, They gave me courage This lockdown was seriously savage! YEAH IT WAS A SAVAGE!! YEAH IT WAS A SAVAGE
