UNLESS

UNLESS

A Poem by Mehak Mushtaq

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 :)

this is such a realistic poem, it really hurts that every single word you said was right! even though we don't admit it!
thank you for sharing this.
