i thought i belonged

I thought i belonged

They blew into my life like a light.

Like the broom we were united,

We did everything together.

But i got to realise that each stick

of the broom has its destiny,

Because when they are used in

various homes,

They fall off to where their destiny

lies on,

Though after the departure, some

are meant to be together,

But will soon be discarded

because they are of no use again.

I strongly depended on the

friendship,

Thinking that we will forever

remain united,

But unfortunately for me, the

friendship didn't favour me.

I got to realise that i am mostly

used,

To sweep out dirts....maltreated.

And I got to break day by day.

Other sticks of the broom are just

long as they were from the

beginning,

But i keep breaking each day,

Because it's just one part of the

broom,

That is being used to sweep out

dirts.

I thought i belonged, not knowing

it was just a mere friendship,

But now, something is pulling me

up,

Because I have a lot to achieve

and as well accomplish in the

future.
