Offlate I was stung by a silly thing in my life that,when grief got the better of me i wrote this poem.
Why is the truth always bitter?
Why do relationships always hurt?
Like a mirage, it draws u near
The closer you move towards it
You realize , it’s a lie & Ah!!...it hurts!!.....
Many at times I fell into the same pit
Much effort was needed to pull myself out
But lo!....my mind gets deceived again
And there! I fall back into the same pit again…..
My silly mind is so gullible
The more I get close with people
The more, I grow on them
But they get busy with the world around them
And the sooner they realize I obstruct their path,
Like a cursed thorn, I am thrown out.
“A little selfishness never hurts”
My tormented soul cries
“Others above yourself”
My innocent heart screams back…..
Torn between emotions and truth
My life’s journey continues to sail…..

ReplyDeletesome have very good songs, some are melancholic,
some songs are short but sweet. Well, the point is, these beautiful renditions, they are done hoping for nothing in return.
