THE FALLEN APPLE
-Prakriti Shrestha
Do they find me unpleasant
Has anyone just maybe,
Admired the way I look to be not thought of
The first time they see me? in a world of praise
where a man I dropped on
Came from the roots of the gets the fame and raise
earth,
Was there a foot under,
Waiting to come up, it’s all about newton
Just to see this wonder. me, mentioned once or twice
yet I’m still not praised like newton
Can the world not see it? I just add to the story I despise
I hold something sophisticated
inside
he’d made a theory
a good one I suppose
I have so much saccharine but if it came from my mind
Yet cloaked with mud on the outside no one would even hear how it goes
If only someone could nourish me in what world is that fair
With every bit of purity
Then I wouldn't be here except our prejudiced world
Dealing with so much insecurity where I’m redeemed speechless
so my story stays untold

you can’t help but envy
the others who can freely walk
Push through hardships,
Endurance is key,
Remember you are not alone,
Stay strong,
Every step counts,
Vigorous we should be,
Even when the road seems long,
Resilience helps you stay strong,
Always keep moving,
Never give up,
Continue with courage,
Endless possibilities await...
-Vaibhav Sarawagi
