In the world so wide,
Full of bubbles and sparkles,
In the furthest corner,
Lay a lonely being.

Alone,
For decades,
With no end in sight,
This person did breathe.

When all the being wanted was to belong,
Not the pursuit of riches or the possession of greed,
Why then does it remain unattainable?

Would it have been better,
To be greedy,
To be evil,
To be cruel,
Selfish and arrogant,
As the other end is being burnt away.

Every drop that was wiped away,
Not for the world to notice,
Not even the near and dear did see,
How the being hid behind the wall.

It's been long,
It's been too long,
Why wouldn't the one take the being away?

Release him,
Torture is done for,
Do not set free,
But send the being away.
