This poem is about a daughter’s mental agony when she finds herself amidst a broken family. Ever since her childhood, she has seen her parents brawl like animals. She has never known what a happy family is like. This is her tale, her questions, and her single wish.

A Lost Daughter

There are things she regrets

There are things culpable

Whom should she ask?

Whom should she curse?

For the riddling mystery of fate.

She hoped it’d be fine soon,

But convulsions get stronger.

Sometimes she let it go

Assured, there is no remedy

But to mourn in silence.

She wonders, why don’t they talk

She wonders why don’t they live.

Throwing their child into a dark pit

It gets hard on her

To pick the suitable

To speak the unspoken.

All she needs is a merry life, just like others.

She doesn’t want to referee between them

She asks, “Don’t I deserve a worthy story?
