People around
People here, people there
Few I understand
Some I empathize
Some make me feel
Some just stay still
I try
I struggle
To make something meaningful
Of the words said
And the words untold
Language I hear around
The slang unknown
Some thank
Some give a apprehensive talk
Some complain
Some backbite
These some sum up the whole
Getting the grip of it
Hanging with anything my hands can get a grasp on
Long way to go
Many souls to meet
Many voices to be heard
Give them a part of you
They snatch away whole entity
Make them know your choice
They start making decisions you should
Scribble their name on your heart
They'll direct it to beat to their rhythm
Keep proving yourself at each step
For you to uphold the integrity of your every move
Since when love has become so pretentious
It makes me wonder
There's nothing new to be said.
The same old
Being packed in new style before sold.
Questions is all I have
Answers few
Yet none's interested in knowing them
No one here wants a solution
Ignoring is the art they master
Turn a blind eye
And things go invisible
However humongous it may be
Brush off
Wipe it clean
Your heart hasn't witnessed anything
Nor has anything been registered in your brain
Control your soul, your conscience
For its causing all the thunder
Shouting too loud
Screams, bursting the ear drum
Deafening
Bleeding your ears out
But
Maintain your composure
You hear nothing
NOTHING
Shove off the questions
Answers, what do they mean?
For real?
Paste that smile on
Get going with your life
Keep your breath sync with your foot
Breathing, moving..
