They Ruined My Life

Pooja Gupta posted under PenMuse-30 Poetry on 2021-05-12



I was a rock star, loved by all, After all, I had been always impressive, Alas! One day patches appeared, some big others small. I tried erasing them but the number got massive, I hadn’t abhorred my body ever before. After all, I had been always impressive. Why wasn’t I the same adorable person anymore? I bellowed as my friends now shied away, I hadn’t abhorred my body ever before! ‘God, free me of these white marks,’ I would pray, ‘Friends, don’t shun me,’ I still whimpered, I bellowed as my friends now shied away. The dreadful Vitiligo left my morale severed, I couldn’t forget they called me hideous and weird, ‘Friends, don’t shun me,’ I still whimpered. Though my parents told not to bother about how I appeared, Yet my despondency advanced at a crawl, I couldn’t forget they called me hideous and weird, Alas! One day patches appeared, some big others small.   Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
