Strange is the world, stranger mankind
Honest & true, are so tough to find
Words & actions hardly match
For simpletons, it is a rough catch
In trying to decipher, you can lose your mind
From taking on face value, I have long resigned
No one around, whom I can lay trust on
In believing others, you’re considered a moron
No ray of light to show there is hope
This perilous mountain, to climb with no rope
All seem to have a betraying mask on
Lies are favoured, truths are frowned upon
Strange is this world, stranger mankind
To carry on here, you have to turn an eye blind –
To hypocrisy of people, which suffocates me to hell
No one to inquire honestly if you’re well
Just one I long for, whom I can trust blindly
Who will care and be around, lovingly & honestly
Who will not exploit, will not show off or use me
With whom I can laugh, be myself and just carefree
Too much to ask I guess, in this world of today
Where you have to be like them, to find your way
Not me, I am sorry, even if it means being lonely
Even if on this path, I’ll be the one and only…
Will tread on and find my peace at last
Better than being constantly harassed!
