Looks weren’t enough—
I fell for words that lifted me,
Encouragement wrapped in kindness.
But it was only kindness.

So, I smiled and tucked it away,
While my heart quietly bled.

They say,
Study and hustle now,
To make your future better.
But, what about present? And what future?
Time doesn't return,
You expect us to sacrifice,
For time which hasn't come,
Or will it even come?
For me, The time they think I waste,
Isn't waste of time for me.
For, I don't regret what I did,
And strike to never regret,
In future you spoke of
And bid.

Mistakes were made by many,
Some amend and journey on,
While others, burdened, lose their dawn.

I achieved it, but at what cost?
Everyone behind, no one in sight, no one by side.

If love was simple, not perplexed,
Would it still claim the title, most complex?
Those who say it's easy, I don't wanna be judgy but it surely isn't.

I am so lost, so lost
My mind feels blank, it's fully blanked
Life seems so dull, dulled soo much
My eyes have lost, lost all light.

I want to leave, leave behind everything
Just run away, run away from everything
Nothing feels worth, lost faith in everything,
I need a leave, to find peace within.

I don't know how I feel,
Is it love? Is it even real?
Never have felt this way,
Maybe because I wasn't this way.

Simple talks bring a smile,
But I don't long for if didn't talk for a while,
I want to talk but I can't say,
What am I supposed to do, I don't know the way.

Would it be odd? Would it be wrong?
All these thoughts come in mind,
My heart says no, my hands on bind,
Is it friendship or are you just kind?

Don't wanna mistake kindness,
Nor wanna start if there is no geniuness,
They say it's true, go for it bro,
But I don't wanna regret, nor wanna let you go.
My EQ and IQ are inversely related, or I am just dense
