People & Friends Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

People & friends
Tuesday,7th Dec,2021
People and friends around
whisper little and sound
like saying one thing
bring it to my notice
I am not worth promising
What makes them think!
and out ink
with no responsibility
about my personality
Work against humanity!
They stare and their eyes speak
making me suspicious and weak
is it the human trick?
that sticks the only assumption
'I am not going with their expectation'
is the cost I have to pay?
and stay
in their good book!
to shake the head in affirmation
and avoid my true presentation
I come across such things
and feel at a loss
without the identity in mass
as if lost with the human class
and waiting for people to kick on the ass
