poem from an old notebook

Featured image

They will pollute you, my son

tarnish your heart with

black, everlasting spots.

You will want to be like them crazily

for it will be seen easy

for your young, uncontaminated, innocent soul

to follow the flow.

You will desperately want to be bad, dirty inside

knowing that nothing you do

will please the others’

incessant desires and cravings.

You will wake up in the middle of the night

crying, asking yourself,

why you’re not behaving like others,

with constant blaming on heart

shall humiliate your self.

You will never be fooled,

yeah, that’s a good thing

but you will be thought of as a gullible, naive

for the ones who judge you

will never realize the path you are ultimately taking, deep down.

The emotions in the recollections of human endeavour will finally

come to an end, they will never be new and

the Truth will be perished in the confinement of men’s indifference.

You will be happily content with the fact that,

the road you walk on

has never been set foot before.
