FAKE
Why should we appear to be happy?
When we are sad actually.
Why do we have to smile?
When we want to cry.
Why do we have to be silent?
When we want to speak out.
Why can’t we come out of this hypocrisy?
Why do we have to put up this fake identity?
Why should we listen to others?
When they are not there for us.
Why should we suppress our own feelings?
Just to see them smiling.
Why should we think about others?
When no one is there to think about us.
Why is the base of all relations so superficial?
Why are these things becoming so immaterial?
Why should we feel the pain?
When others stand to gain.
Why should we be the losers?
Just to see others as winners.
Why should we be concerned?
When they are least bothered.
Why should we suffer?
Why should we termed as “FAILURE”?
I too am a part of this society-
Who fears to face the reality.
I too have lost my identity-
And still searching for it in this world of hypocrisy.
How much more can I take?
Am I real or actually fake………

very transparent
move on1
keep writing1
well sutirtho..da meaning I understood from ur writings in dis poem of urs (doh a reader’s interpretation might b different frm da sense in which da poet writes…pardon me if im wrong!).. & instead of praisin ur writings (which r really worthy of dat to a great extent)…i’ll take da liberty to comment on ur poem critically..& im sure u wont mind!
u basically sed (or complained) dat y arnt we doin wat we ought to do!!
u see sumtyms…if not most of da times.. da moment demands us 2 bhave in such a way dat we pretend 2 oppose a belief or behaviour while holding da same beliefs or behaviours at the same tym!....so technically we may b termed as hypocrites..
but u see these things manifested as hypocrisy are a necessary or beneficial part of human behavior and society…
in all this, we do not find the modern idea that the hypocrite is unaware that his performance or argument stands in contradiction with his self:
on the contrary, a hypocrite in antiquity is someone who intentionally tries to deceive others…
hypocrisy has been described, alongside lack of sincerity, as a characteristic which attracts particular opprobrium in the modern age..despite conventional social reactions to it, hypocrisy may be an essential guard against fanaticism, and may be to the benefit of high values and moral behaviour….
well i hope I ws able to convey what I had 2 say!
anywayz do kip on penning down your thoughts…it’s a treat to da eyes & mind !
CHEERS!
