I Don'T Show Poem by Rutvi Padhy

I Don'T Show



I'm not used to showing what I feel,

Perhaps you wouldn't have felt the same,

And it's just another word,

Who cares if it drives me insane?



I'm not used to showing what I feel,

Perhaps you wouldn't have declared,

And don't people expect from others,

What those people expect from themselves.



I'm not used to showing what I feel,

And it does make me mad,

I keep fighting with myself,

Would it have been better if I'd just dared...



But I ain't used to it, I can't help!

You might even ask me why,

Because my retorts can ruin bonds,

And even if I react, you might ignore...



Thus, I'm not used showing, I wear a mask,

A mask of smiles, it's a tiresome task,

But I haven't removed my mask for long,

The last time, things had gone wrong...



So yeah, I'm not used to showing what I feel,

Perhaps even if I show, you wouldn't see,

So lets pretend like I do not care,

Lets just say 'it's a part of me...'
