Lupus warrior: K. Sangeetha

You took away the spring time of my life when I was about to bloom You made me feel remote You gave me bruises You gave me intolerable pains Screaming every night oh lupus let me live Every single day I fought a battle just to breathe normally I cried desperately for the life I wanted  I never wanted to look at myself because I looked healthier and healthier Then came a day you took away my bean shaped organs Oh! Lupus you failed I conquered you and I am back Now, when I stand in front of the  mirror I say to myself I need a normal life as a normal girl with all my dreams turning real Yes, then I realised you still have left an impression on me Where people no longer look at me as an ordinary person  Better late than never  When I have conquered you nothing in this world is hopeless for me.
