The Story Changed

My room is cold

Alone in all this darkness

Someone promised to be with me

But at the end, the story changed

Blamed for my social status

Allergic to my friend

They don't want to see me

But at the end, the story changed

Don't even own a plate

Just a mere begged

They have given me a name

But at the end, the story changed

Thinking about God

I think of hope

He is the game changer

But at the end, the story changed

My social status is unknown

But I found her

She formed my family

But at the end, the story changed

It was hard to think

But he meant good for me

But he was gone too soon

But at the end, the story changed

Named after a legend

Make feel one

Try to be bad

But at the end, the story changed

They took all

Even meant for me

They said I had no right

But at the end, the story changed
