Questionable Questions

Questionable Questions

A Poem by Enigma

what do u do?

when u feel as lonely

as i do right now

no one to run back to

and cry my heart out

no one to hug tight

and feel loved once again

no one to talk

without being judged

as good or bad

but i already am judged

forever labelled

People who don't know me

Who claim to care

Yet show not a hint of it

How can I be sure?

How can this desert

My heart has become

Be confident

By the age old promis

Of the rain of love

Which hasn't drenched me till now

Atleast not from you.

So why do you find it wrong

Immoral, even

When I try to seek it

From someone else

Someone better

Someone who makes me feel good

Brings out the best

From this shrunken

Irritable

Forvever gloomy

Human, my own self

What CAN I do?

I tried but I wont, anymore

Starve myself of attention

Of the basic needs

Which go beyond the materialistic needs

Like food and clothes and shelter

That you boast of having provided me with

I need more

Call me names, greedy or whatever

What I need

Is what I'll seek

Don't try to make me act otherwise

Shout out to the world

If you want

Blame me for your life

For your miseries and woes

Those who know me, won't believe you

And those who do believe

They don't matter to me

I would rather be

With one true friend

Than a thousand back-stabbing heart-less creatures

Who put forth themselves

As my well-wishers

What you want me to do

I don't know

But what I need to do

For my own self

I will...

You question many things. Your words are true. Few people can be trusted in a life. When you have a good friend. Need to be thankful and be there for them. A very good ending to a excellent poem.
