You didn’t care

You didn’t care what I wanted, instead-

you took away whatever I had before

You didn’t care

I didn’t even know you, but you came into-

my life with a sole purpose to ruin my life

You didn’t care

I worked hard so that I can get admission to-

top colleges, but you took that away from me

You didn’t care

I was from a middle class family, I don’t know-

how my father took care of your expenditures

You didn’t care

You knew how much I hated sympathy,

but you bombarded me with sympathies

You didn’t care

I love my hair, but to get rid of-

you I lost my hair in the process

You didn’t care

You knew needles didn’t make me cry,

but those cries from kids’ pain did

You didn’t care

I was in love, if I had a little more time-

I might have confessed my love to her

You didn’t care

What was my fault, what was that kid’s-

fault, what was that old lady’s fault?

You didn’t care

I wasn’t scared of death, but I was-

scared what my mom will do if I die

You didn’t care

You didn’t care

5^th February 2015

Today after a year spent fighting you, defeating you. I feel stronger than ever. I made few friends here but am leaving with fewer friends. I know that you didn’t care about me but because of you I have learnt few things. I have realized the importance of family, time, hope, patience, money and friends. I didn’t remember if my father helped me walk but now I do. You took a lot from me, time being the most. This was the most important and dangerous fight of my life. Yes, I escaped death from its jaws.
