Sweat from child's eye

Sweat from child's eye

2 mins
586

Sweat came from his eyes, Echoing his terrible sight.

While the tongue-tied grieving screams clashed

every day in his life!

Oh my! How cruel can be life!

For his limbs swayed here and there,

being tired forever!

His heart roared toiling,

every second in every hour.


Sun scorched in his eyes, depriving his right.

Liked it deprived other's senses,

leaning towards petty crime summing to mountains height.

as abiding a durable plan couldn't suffice for them,

for short-minded, a quick buck from child work

was more enduring to them.


Money though being external,

weighted more than his memories bundled.

No money yet couldn't cover the expanse

of his childhood innocence.


Could he become his resilient self?

After covering his body with dust and cement,

Instead of playing with mud, grass or sand.

Instead of carrying a bag of books on his back,

he brings red brick ahead in a head pan.

Instead of making letters on paper with a pen,

he makes a hole in the ground.
