Is the Problem Within Me?
Raising awareness for Mental Health
(Share for the Contest )
Why am I always digging the words?
From Excellent to Worst
As if they were just for satire,
Hidden purposes or some what dualistic
A meaning lacking clarity as if
Speaking of hidden vanity.
Puzzled to sort out their status
Implicit, explicit, or witty ?
Then the next moment a mute passed by
Lost, too nervous and so shy
Bend and bowed my heart cried:
Oh, dear human !! You can speak, listen
And say, what else do you want ?
I worried a lot on petty issues
My curls are unkempt
The tattered denim does not fit with
Those baggy loose tees
The glossy tints do not agree
With the chill struck chapped lips
And I began to hid myself behind
Luxury brands, to steal the eyes,
To reveal to the world my expensive vibe
Did all that make any sense to the wise?
Those artificial hooks, cosmetic layers
aren’t all hollow, soulless and bare?
