That Which is Not

Why do you do this  whenever I try to build a bridge between us 
You open your mouth, you express your self and try share your opinion 
Why do you do that – share your feelings and tell your mind 
Cant you keep shut , cant you lay low and cant you have some chill 

Why do you make mistakes , why do you not pretend and why do you not listen 
Cant you be flawless , cant you just be perfect ...enough to go un noticed 

Why do you need to work hard, why do you need to learn a new skill , 
It is fine with me that you do things by yourself Just never ask anything from me 
Or may be ... you can be little helpless just enough to make me feel like a hero.. 
Why do u look so pretty when we go out .. who do u want to bring home 
U don’t have to share about your pursuits and gains to anyone  … 
what is the whole point of making  me feel like a zero !
