LOVE


Love or no Love

Which of these matters

Sitted with no motions

Thinking with no emotions

There I was sucked in deep into my own thought

Lost in my own mind-created jungle

Of the perfect choice to make

 

I chose love

Love is a great criteria I want

Love is patient and kind

Love is beautiful and powerful

I want to be loved,cherished'noticed and accepted

In my cause of being loved I was exploited

I can't just fathom what happened

Exploitation plus love can not just happen

and the worst is....

I have to be like them to be like by them

Bringing down my values to be accepted by them

But love is a principle,a standard,an enviromental criteria

Why does it come with sacrifice?

Why is it not easy to be loved?

Maybe I can't be loved anyways

 

I chose no love

Memories were buried deep within my sub-concious

Memories of the world I dwell in

Memories of the word of Me and not the word of We

bruised,broken,battered and unloved people

Those who have desire to be loved but get none

Those who are dissent in the society

Strifed,antagonised,discorded just to be accepted

Strived so hard just to be noticed

Why should i be stressed to feel loved?

Why should I sift out my values just to feel among?

maybe I can just be with no love

 

......................

my first spoken words,how is it?
