Best Poems Written by Geethika K N

Broken Loop

About two on a Friday morning
Here I am lying on the floor 
My reflection on a tilted photo seeping

Through the frame while I'm laying 
still, weighed down by guilt to the core 
of not being a responsible sibling;

Of taking a creeping path of lying 
to protect the society that did nothing but wore
me down and put me in a quod of losing

myself and all I've ever known; And breaking 
all the rules only to end up fading before 
I know it; Oh! But made me laugh like crying

As I wiped my tears, I'm now feeling 
the best way to learn is to unlearn more 
and more of the fabricated lies we learnt growing

up and now we are born again in this amazing 
world, so, it's about time we swore 
to be ourselves and as I get up startling, 
Hey! The photo isn't tilted anymore, darling!
