No Games Included


He discovers the hardcore reality of just a snap

Black and white pixels all blemish free, flawless

He can cover up all impurities, but is he feeling trapped?

Inside a bubble full of insecurities

Why is he so afraid to unravel the truth?

Blocked up by perfection's own purities.

Behind all that photo art lies a boy

Scared, blind and not prepared for tomorrow

Among the people, does he want to portray expressionless joy?

No corrections, no gimmicks, no games included here

Wake up before your beauty disappears!

My side hobby is writing poetry, I tend to write complicated poems that have various meanings and I am always interested to hear other's interpretations. I love poetry because it acts as a gateway to express things and reveal my inner self. Enjoy, Poetry lovers!
