Chini (she keeps deferring telling the tale behind her name) is a I year CS-AB student who has always done some excellent writing for her assignments. She read this poem, during one of the Pragmatic Communication sessions, in the classroom and we decided instantly that it'd go on Freespeech.
Miles away from the land of life,
Devoid of blooming hours of pride,
Seclusion and solitude, nature and streams,
Lives a maiden with hopes and dreams.
There was a time; she was chirpy and loud,
Modest in expressions, innocent yet proud.
Growing up with values and dignity,
Simplicity her attire, her inner beauty.
As she crossed the thresholds of innocent age,
Harshness and brutality of the world she faced.
Friends unhinged her with false gratitude,
Love she had was never really hers.
She had become blunt and fake,
Disappointed with herself for others sake.
Bewildered and lost, when she was giving up,
An angel of God showed her the sun.
She is now determined to shine one day,
Though alone she walks, she is happy and gay.
Miles away from the land of life,
The maiden with dreams is ready to fly.
