UNLESS

We never say what we don't mean,

unless we mean to hurt.

We never see what we don't want,

unless we mean to see pain.

We never do what we should not,

unless we mean to break.

We never argue when we agree,

unless we mean to fight.

We never walk in without a plan,

unless we mean a game.

We never make believe with no commitment,

unless we mean nothing.

We never show care with no intention,

unless we mean winning.

We never love without a reason,

unless we mean to let go.

We never forget when (it's) unforgettable,

unless we mean no memories.

We never surrender when we're winning already,

unless we mean relation.

We never cry when no emotion,

unless we mean hurt.

wow... that is all I can say. In this one poem you have basically described my life, I know it sounds cliche and all that but you have. I love it, I love how you have captured the truth of our being, the truth of what we think and the truth of what we can do. As humans we can cause great harm but also great pleasure. Thank you :)

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Life...it always seems to baffle the best of us...question without answers...truth disguised as lies...pain lurking in caring's clothes...life. Very nice.

A mixture of many different ideas into one piece of art. =)

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Thank you. :)

An interesting piece with a voice of confusion. What do you do when you find someone has been keeping things from you and you were in love with them?

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Same question asked by one of my other friends. Well, when you love someone and they hide things from you, it hurts but even God keeps secrets. :)

[Maan]

:) Can you justify the comparison of human's love with God's? OR even the secrets?

[Mehak Mushtaq]

I believe that Human is divine. :)

[Maan]

I agree my friend. . but what about human behavior, feelings, morals and characteristics? they are divine too?

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Had our behavior been divine, then we would have been gods.
