Wouldn't You ?

You would think
that saying goodbye
would get easier
after its said a thousand times.
You would think, wouldn't you.
You would think
that being alone
would make you grow
stronger
and not weaker
You would think, wouldn't you.
And being seen
as an outsider
must sound appealing
to an insider.
And being called
different
as a form
of complement
You would, wouldn't you.
Have you ever felt muted
Like you cannot speak
but not because you can't
but because you can't
because others won't let you
because what you speak
is not what they want to hear
rather what they fear
to admit.
This is you, isn't it.
Have you ever felt broken
like a thousand pieces worth
but not because you fell
but because you fell
in love
with a broken heart
ten thousand pieces of which
you could not fix
This is I , isn't it.
Would you feel ignored
if seen as ignorant
but not because you are ignorant
but because of ignorance
being seen
as bliss-
full
of solitude
of this you have felt, haven't you.
The feeling when
you leave people
at home
but not because you are going out
but because you are leaving
for long.
have you ever felt distance
between your right
and wrong,
between your heart
and mind,
science
and
soul
This is us, isn't it.
You would think
that a call for attention
would become silent
after a sign
of affection,
one should think, shouldn't they.






and of this, what do you think ?
