Be Yourself

Caring for others Listening to others Seeking their attention Valuing their opinions All these are good But when they grew To the extent of Caring less for you Careless for yourself, rather, You should feel you are out of track. You become their opinion. Their thought Their mouthpiece Their nonsensical mirror! How long this should go on? How long should you become A stranger to your very self A refugee to your own house Come back to your self Come stay with you the person Neighbors can feed you Hug you; caress you; They cannot just fix you. Your being fixed with you Or remaining unfixed Depends on your self-fixing...! 21 July 2022
