I wish could steal your cloak
Divine and royal as it seems
Does it really make me disappear
For me to go for hiding?
I shall then hang around for a while,
Unknown to any single soul
And catch you before you deny
Whenever you play so fowl!
I shall then hardly ever appear
Because I am set to escape
All that pains and wound I bear
More than I can scream for help
Then I shall run way so far
Moorlands and woods left unexplored
Finding somewhere, someone
Who makes me feel I too am adored
My eyes moisten as I write this words
Wishing for your cloak so divine
Will it help me find an escape route
And tell me its gonna be fine!

Wishing for your cloak
Horse who lost the war!
I am a horse black or white
Weak and hurt down the knees
Laying in the dark stable
Waiting for my release
I have hardly seen any sun,
Since the time I was a colt
Other than those peeping rays
Dancing through those crack and hole
You reined me since I was of month
Thinking you could use that cart
But I was meant for wilderness
Now a horse who lost the war
I dreamed of breaking those reins
Growing wings of my own
Whatever colour may they be
But to fly till any wings have flown
I once or twice flapped those wings
Eager to see those green woodlands
And had jumped and flied few times at least
Before you slaughtered them with your hands
I have quit to dream anymore
No more I hope to grow my wings
Realising I am meant to pull those wheels
And to live as a lonely being
You love to drag me all muddy way
I pull your 'tuk-tuk' with all my might
And I have dreamed of running race!!!!
Now you have restricted my sight
Hurt and tired here I lay
Ending another day of slaughted dreams
Hope the rays dance all the same
When tonignt old moon smiles and beams
