sleeping was i on the couch so cosy,
everything was normal all around me thought,
not doubting whether why was i silent,
for my silence was something in return i got.
in return i had got it from the personified karma,
for i had gathered unspoken curses from many,
stature had i lowered down of mine,
for the reasons were still unknown,
but so far i could feel that i had been selfish,
until that love from me had gone.
love from me had gone because i assumed i was betrayed,
so i hopped onto something that would betray them too,
never did i try to figure out the reasons behind the situations,
never had i tied to understand them,
for what i always saw was me and my reputations,
and i messed and played it like it was all a game.
but playing this game, though did what i wanted,
thought i had won from it all,
enjoyed i for long, but i could feel something was, speaking inside me,
it was the sound of my crying soul.
slowly was i remembering the game i played,
i thought i had won,
but my soul was crying,
but why was it so?
lo! life's isn't a game, forgot had i!
irritation and guilt filled my heart,
couldnt think the next did i,
nor could share what i was feeling,
for all i did see was my own happiness ,
forgot had i that the game which i was playing had no opponent,
but it was me alone,
silence and curses was all i got,
for i thought i had won!
