Devyani Biswas Poet Rhyme

Step Out

If I say that I can’t do it anymore,
Will you be my anchor…
Or will you slip out from the backdoor?

If I let down my guard,
Will I have then earned your regard …
Or will you finally drop the charade?

If it’s all for one and one for all,
Then why do you always hide behind your wall?

You tell me to be myself, to be bold
Honestly, don’t your lies ever get old?

The world is a stage they say ,
That we are not here to stay..

And if that is the case,
Then why live in the fear of disgrace ?

Step out and breathe;
And look at what the ray of hope can seethe..

Now, what remains of these confines?
Are they anything more than a few blurred lines ?

And so, I ask you again ;

If I say that I can’t do it anymore,
Will you be my anchor…
Or will you slip out from the backdoor?

If I let down my guard,
Will I have then earned your regard …
Or will you finally drop the charade?
