Rest in Peace

They mocked
They ignored
They cheated
They shunned,

You,
For being who
You were.

You,
Cut your ears,
Filled your pocket
With memories
To dissolve,
Between the Acts,
Shooting your head
In a field
Of opinions,
And breathed
A room full
Of deception.

Perhaps,
You took
Their world
Too seriously.

@Arbit,
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Kommu said...

With him it is in general a bad thing.

Uttara said...

Er. OK.

The Write Girl said...

This is deep, moving, and certainly evokes a feeling of being lonely. Nicely written.

@ Sandra.If,
It was inspired by the song 'Vincent' by Don McLean.
