People Like Them feel Isolated with Intimate Friends
And Talk Nineteen to Dozen to keep away their Mind's Din
And wallow in their own Sadness and end up hurting the Others in any case
People Like Them Seem to be the Best at everything
But in Reality are constantly Fighting a Surge Within
People Like Them Lend Advice and a Patient Ear
Hoping that Some day it will be Reciprocated when they require
People Like Them Fight for their Pals with the World
Only to realize it ain't really gonna happen in Return
People Like Them Seek Happiness with Friends and Family
And are Misconstrued as Social Butterflies
People Like Them stand for the Right
But the Person Happens to be Wrong
People Like Them bring Together the Unknown
And then become Dispensable to Everyone Known
People Like Them face Rejection at all Walks of Life
But Still find enough Redemption to Move On and Smile
People Like Them are Forever Insecure
Contrary to the Portrayal of I-Can-Handle-All
People Like Them Are in a Tug-of-War
Between Wanting to be Discovered yet Remain Strong.
wow. it sounded like me. then it sounded like u. then it sounded like some1 else.
ReplyDeletebut at the end of the day..I think "People Like Them" should be proud of themselves.. It was the right thing to do..
ReplyDelete@ aman: what was the right thing 2 do
ReplyDelete@ aditi: hmm..it was about a grp of ppl..:P
Must say that ur observance of a group of people is very much right.
ReplyDeleteLiked this two lines the most it fits to me perfectly -
"People Like Them Seek Happiness with Friends and Family
And are Misconstrued as Social Butterflies
People Like Them stand for the Right
But the Person Happens to be Wrong"
This is a short yet very good observance of human nature laid down beautifully in ur own words.
Bling - Came to your blog through that of the Compulsive Confessor. Though you don't seem to be a regular blogger anymore.
ReplyDeleteI however loved this post & I am copying it on my blog too unless you have any objections.
PS:
About the post in which you describe why are you a man-hater - all agreed but yet that is so much an excuse to hate most of innocent people around you.
