I am depressed,
I am disappointed,
My trust is shattered,
My faith is shaken
STILL –
I am supposed to understand,
I am supposed to adjust,
I am advised,
I am instructed
WHY?
Do you know me?
Do you know my situation?
Can you understand it?
Can you feel it?
NO – You can’t,
Because if you can,
You will let me be me,
You will let me grieve,
You will let me question,
You will let me move by my own pace
HOW can you ?
Advise and ask to cope,
Pressurize or exert force,
On what is already broken,
On what is already shattered
ALL I needed was-
A little support,
A little comfort,
An ear to hear,
Somebody near,
With some time,
And my own space
YES-
I am negative,
I think worst,
I am not practical,
I am emotional,
My talks are not pleasing,
My behavior is absurd
BUT,
This is how I am,
This is how I will stay,
Until, one day,
I naturally overcome,
A part of my grief,
A part of my sorrow,
This is my toughest time,
But, if you can’t stay along,
I set you free,
And you can go,
I am aware,
No one like to stand by,
In your bad times,
In your troubles and cries.
Many like fun and party,
Enjoyment and celebrations,
Cheers and laughter,
Without any disaster,
I don’t need you and
Your advises,
Your suggestions,
Your false support
I will stay in my world,
With those who are,
Letting me stay,
My way,
My style,
With those who are,
Letting me,
BE ME !!

Conversation hereon wordpress has to start with a question / discussion. We hardly know each other..and this space is for blog comments, so it will be good to keep it reserved for them. Everything has its own space, and this space is for discussions, sharing of views, perspectives, ideas. Sharing helps us to stay firm at times and to reconstruct at other times , our thoughts and approach which further helps us evolve as a better human. I have reserved this space for such discussions and now I think, you shall read my post:
https://akanksharastogi.wordpress.com/2013/05/26/its-all-messed-up/
So, let’s not mess up word press with simple hello and hi conversations.
This is my viewpoint, and yours may differ and its completely fine. And we can discuss this very topic further (if required).

Agreed….a couplet by Kabeer ji completely relatable to the situation:-
“The Ocean is on Fire, The Smoke is not Visible
He Knows Who Has Been there and been Burnt”

You expressed very well the struggles you were facing, and the agitation you felt when others tried to force their unwanted advice on you.
Well written!
And times like these will pass 🙂

Wow! yet another amazing post.
You know the best part about your posts is they are so honest, they create an immediate connection with the reader. I felt the kind of thoughts you might be having, your heads-pace while writing this.
Even i tried to write something around the same lines few weeks back.
You can check it out here, if you like.
