I'm a poet and I didn't even knoet!!

When I look around for a person I can rely on, a friend,
I quickly step back if this person will follow the trend...

Often while asleep, I take a walk into the past,
Only to find myself waking up last...

I asperse myself with these thoughts running in and out of my head.
Makes me wonder later if all this is real and if I am alive or I'm dead...

A little bold and a little scared,
I take pride in all that is spared...

Was I that bad a friend, so much that you all left me to my mercy.
Stranded, only to find you lovely people on the other side of the sea...

I could have been a much merrier person if only a couple of you didn't betray my trust.
Though splittng was my call, thinking of you, my friends is a must...

It is something I don't control.
My mind, I guess has gone for a stroll...

Did I demand much from you? Did I ask for anything more than friendship?
Tell me for once if I wasn't true...
That you still torment my thoughts draining the very life out of it with a whip...

The air smells fresh and sky looks clear now.
I know I have to jump across the fence. But how?

If being me promises a life of solitude isttead of solidarity,
I'll show the world I can still live it my way, without pity...

To all those people who gave up on me and to those who didn't think I was worth their time-
I'll not prove a point or my worth, for I know what I am made of. I will still reach my destination...

If you ever thought I was lazy,
I know I am. Also a little too crazy...

If relations are meant to be played with and if you think its a game,
I'd rather choose to move away, with a promise never to take your name.

After reading this, I know you'd probably curse me and give a stare.
I'd bother the least and all I want to say is "Please take care."



These lines are an excerpt of what runs in my mind. All credits to a few people who managed to leave a scar in my life.. I'll treasure them... I can’t promise forever, but will treasure them as long as I can.. Its a difficult job to keep it within myself. I will never take names. Rest assured...

~~Peace
