When I was an actor, everybody loved me
I don’t know why no one saw me the same
Although I told them the truth, just to get freed.
When I tried to help, everybody admired me
but when I needed help, I saw that they didn’t care nor they did see.
When I miss them, I search for them with my presence,
but they are alright even in my absence.
When I change every little thing about myself for them,
they say I deserve the world and the ring of saturn
but they will not change themselves for me,
because it’s hard for them; so was it for me.
Maybe it all turns out to be in this way
because I’m too kind and real that is a cliche.
When they are fed up of life, I take them on a date
now I’m sick no one is there to cover me in blanket.
It might seem like I don’t have self respect,
but you have never seen the poetry in me.
They might think I’m always complaining,
but trust me, I have not even started to speak.
This world gets attracted to the ones who cares less, and who makes less effort, who never really deserves
and I’m the one to stay with my meaningless presence.
