And yes, I got what badly I once wanted
For what I cried, fear had me haunted
I now wear a black impostor hat
O! I turned into an ungrateful brat
We only crave for what we don't have
We beg God crying, without a laugh
Only when we get, we betray like a rat
O! I turned into an ungrateful brat
I thought I was fairy, 'cause humans make mistakes
I thought, I was pure water, out of all glitched lakes
Only to realise, I have been a human, when I was sat
O! I turned into an ungrateful brat
I now know, I am the lie, I am a lie and Sigh
My eyes aren't now wet in front of God, they're dry
Sinning all the time, my heart became fat
O! I turned into an ungrateful brat

Ohhh this was clean and biting in the best way! The refrain “O! I turned into an ungrateful brat” hits like a dramatic Bollywood zoom-in and I loved every second of it 😂 Anyways, dear how have you been doing so far? And really, I’m glad you came back to write over here. It always feels a bit brighter when you do. 🥰💖
This is very moving, a lot of emotion, and it also makes one think deeply!!
Oooo, glitched lakes, I especially loved that. Your poem was so poignant and beautiful. Sending you lots of love and hugs ❤️
