A Tired Phoenix

 A tired Phoenix!


Everytime I give someone place above me,

I get hit bad, 

Everytime I show utter obedience, 

In return, I only get set-backs, 

Each time I try to trust someone blindly, 

I get betrayed and taken advantage of, 

Everytime I hope for some care, 

Some importance, 

Sidelined, I remain!

Expecting from wrong people and contexts is at fault, 

Choosing wisely is the cure though, 

Resurrection is possible- but how many times ?

I am tired playing a pheonix role, 

Rising from the ashes always from time to time.

Born to be a 'Phoenix' but now I am tired,

I need some love, some care!
