Am I a Nobody?
Am I a nobody, hidden and small,
A quiet voice in the shadow’s call.
I give my all, I bear the load,
Yet walk unseen down every road.
Am I a nobody, calm and kind,
Feeling the hurt that others hide.
They find my worth in materialistic charades—
Is there no merit to who’s inside?
Am I a nobody, lost and plain,
For loving deep through joy and pain.
If love and grace don’t earn a name,
Then let me be this “nobody,” glad to be framed.
For in my heart, my truth will stay,
A quiet light that paves the way.
In Rhythms & Silence- Rajit
