My New Address

Donot look for me in the lanes of happiness...
Because I have rented a room in the slums of loneliness; 
Where I hear my own stories
& share myself- my woes & worries.

I have left that world of kin & friends...
For a place where bondage of bonds ends; 
I think this room suits me well...
Although you might call it a second hell! 

I had enough of social touch, 
And veiled looks that hide so much: 
I am happy in this world confined...
Where no fake voice echoes nor illusions blind! !
