Woes of our tots..

Woes of our tots..

For first time as I opened my eyes,

Cheers and laughter I heard, as I cried.

Greeted by happy faces and loving arms,

They snuggled me close and kept me warm.


Each day was new, I learnt new things,

Hugs and kisses and love it would bring.

Moms eyes carefully watched my every step,

Dad's shoulder always there when I wanted to rest.


I grew in years, I realized there was more to learn,

People around always had tips to turn.

I am not good as him, I don’t shine like her,

Against every ones desire my little achievements blurred.


Time slowly turned into a learning quest,

No one happy, even if I gave my best.

Everyone ready to rate me against kids they knew,

Their love for me these scales always screwed.


Comparisons, competition all round my head,

My innocence died their expectations death.
