Asking questions, nobody knew?
Felt the night sky, on a rainy day?
Had an argument, without a say?
Wrote a tale, once was real?
A story too true, almost fictional.
Ever tried making, somebody laugh?
Made their worries, dispersed in half?
Scaled a mountain, failing just inches from the top?
Cried a river, without shedding a single drop?
Told a truth, that it almost shattered.
The relation you had, which never really mattered?
Created an art, for someone to see?
Gave up on things, just to feel free?
Have you ever….! Wished of a thousand dreams?
Worked so hard, that you pushed the extremes?
Made a New Year resolution, to give up on smoke?
Slept through an entire vacation, like a royal bloke?
Felt cheated, after paying for some goods?
Discounted clothes; restaurants with expensive foods!
Laughed so hard, that you almost peed?
Chased by a doggy, you forgot to feed?
Shivering with sickness, curled inside a blanket alone?
Waited for hours, staring blankly at the never ringing phone?
Woke up at 4, but went back to sleep?
Parents, were the reason for journeys to skip?
Have you ever travelled, alone in a train?
To a faraway place, where there was this glorious rain?
Got into a fight, even though terrible scared?
No studying, then also every exam faired?
Started Feeling dizzy, after just couple of drinks?
Text messaged ‘I luv u’s, without inserting any winks?
Discovered truly, only when the friend said - “You are in love”?
Song lyrics were perfectly remembered, forgot about the Bicuspid curve?
Landing in a new city, only to find it lame?
You shouldn’t be what they say –
A stranger, loner or just any weird face.
Because if you are any of the three;
The existing world can become a very strange place
Then you shall find it difficult to survive
and soon you will numbered, robbed from receiving any high five’s.
“….You wouldn’t possibly want that to happen?”
In most cases, whatever you may lose
will only cause your confidence to dampen.
Eventually you will cease to walk,
Freeze in a single place as if you are stoned into a concrete block.
‘Can’t sit, fight ….most probably: won’t even be able to talk;
‘which is bad!
And it’ll also help in making that everyday communication
a tad too sad.
Now here’s the part that gets a little tricky
…it’s not worst, but is officially freaky.
- Sooner! you may find that you are unable to speak
a single word dropped,
which leaps out of your mouth unnecessarily weak;
Your lips seem to move, but nothing could be heard.
It is then your posture that becomes quite absurd
As if too lean, searching for gravity it seeks.
While you walk, stand or eat; ‘but remain erect!
You bow down ridiculously with a Notre dame hunching effect.
Passerby will watch.
A certain eyebrow will notch.
Those who will glance? Over of the fence!
Won’t stop and stare …… or even faint
They’ll just walk by you….
Thinking you as a defective war accident.
Their thought bubble will say; “You were purposefully discarded as a scrap!
Supposedly, they must have ran out of any bubble wrap. So they threw you away, while
cursing you with shitty crap. Tied a stone to your lazy strap
and pushed you away into a world
that doesn’t understand the subtle meaning of the word ‘rap’.”
And ..just to prove,
What is not true!
They’ll smile and laugh with a warm face –
Pointing their finger, as if to tace.
But remember the smile and their laughs!
Because; they are not smiling with you.
But sadly are laughing, pointing at you!
