Tell Me Then That You Are a Sapien

When you are amidst the chaos 
and you just have to watch the mess 
Tell me then that you are a sapien
if you were patient enough to not lose your peace 

When you have to walk miles 
and your shoes just got tore
Tell me then that you are a sapien 
if you were courageous enough to not stop

When you are upto something progressive 
and luck ditched you
Tell me then that you are a sapien
if you were determined enough to start over again 

If you trusted someone completely 
and they shattered it into pieces
Tell me then that you are a sapien 
if you allowed yourself to trust someone again 

When you loved someone deeply 
and it was all one sided
Tell me then that you are a sapien 
if you didn't abuse and still in love

When you helped someone out of the blue 
and they didn't thank you
Tell me then that you are a sapien 
if you did not make them count

And out of all the emotions you witnessed 
if you were still laughing heartily 
without the lines of stress on your forehead
Tell me then that you are a sapien
And yes i will believe you
Because i belong to the same specie 
proving my existence as a sapien.
