Poem Title:
Poem
I have seen eyes turn cold Eyebrows shoot up And sarcastic glances exchanged Merely because of my detached nature Merely because of I choose to keep to myself Merely because I prefer my own company Merely because I try hard To give not the impression That I am in fact An introvert! Pray, when I choose to pretend That I am not bothered It is merely because I am scared Of the effects that my reaction will have After all, introverts do open up to people Only when they've grown familiar to them! When I choose to be engaged in my own company Nose buried in my diary Or my book Or in my mobile It is because interacting is real harsh for me Pray, I prefer to listen to the wind Singing songs made of poetic hues Yes, I prefer to close in on myself And watch clouds acting up in the blue sky Making a film based on their own existence An existence, definitely related to mine own! Why, I've seen eyes turn cold I've seen eyebrows shoot up And sarcastic glances exchanged But then, I've told myself to let it be Someday, those same eyes will turn warm Those same eyebrows will furrow into each other Dying out of laughter And those sarcastic glances Will turn into melted ones! Yes, I choose to let it be Relationships; whether friendly or romantic; Do take time to build I shall surely open up And give the world A display of the cosmic dance That goes on in me I shall fret not For life knows how to thrust in our way The paths on which we are to tread! 3 August 2017
