Poem
Remaining silent, I get to take a deeper understanding of who I am, And I get to bond with the real woman behind by fair skin, Who is a coward and wouldn’t dare to say no, But longs for an opportunity to face you, and say hallo! But, as someone who has taken a glimpse of the outside world, I say nothing more than, “You have this under your power and control, And you can as well be someone; Without necessarily encroaching on your personal peace, For friendships that do not last longer than a blink of an eye.” I tell this small woman who lives within me, That she needs no one else apart from me, To function better and make her shine, Like the diamonds, ladies’ lovers. I remind her, That at the end of the day, It all gets back to her, with her by herself, And that she needs nobody to live her life; But, is this not something I have been doing from the start? Running away from what reality holds, That we all need somebody? It is hard to believe, But it is either that I have become an introvert, Or that I am just depressed and do not know how to cope! For what I know is true about company, Is that it contributes to one’s healing from brokenness. Yet I am trying to build a wall around my life, As if trying to put a final stump on my stereotype assumption, That all people hurt us in the end, And that they take even the slightest hope remaining. I do not know who can convince me better than myself, But I need a helper, to impart some sense into me, That I need all of you irrespective of whom you are, For this is what living in this world means, That I need you as much as you need me!
