~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just leave me alone
I can't handle your words
Your words that tend to preach me
But their sounds don't reach me
What reaches is the tone
The tone that bombs my heart
Oh my God! A great applause for your art
Thou art of devastating my soul
Thou art of defeating me as a whole
You killed me but I can't explain
You wounded me but I can't show my pain
Oh my well-wisher I salute your game
I'm the victim but lord is thy name
Killing me everyday has become your aim
What if to you I do the same
What if I take over the game
But oh! I have no audience..your stories took away my fame..
It feels like I am in a trench dug up so deep
I can't come out, can just peep
my biggest enemy is the crowd
The criticising eyes are talking something about
You have conquered my each and every word
Oh! my well-wisher now how will I talk to the world
They say I am depressed
No my friend I am just stressed
Help me just take me out of this dark dome
Or else just leave me alone
Just leave me alone
