...are you,
I ask.
Are you
what you say you are
who you say you are
what you do you say you do
or do you do just what
he does
she does
they do
I do...
when i cut things of mine and shed them off
you pick them up and wrap them around you
you take my skin, i take yours,
chips unknown, unwanted, undefined...
...are you, just me?
...am I, just you?

Human being is nothing but onion.. :P
ReplyDeleteI see them peeling away my body, layer by layer,
I get the pain, but they too get the tears
Well yes, beneath each skin of mine, I have another skin and I have a core, a strong core untouched and unplugged!
Though I have my own share of tears too!
All that abandoned skin/soul, that's cut and lying there on the ground, of you, me and us..
is an inception of another onion :)
Intersting thought diiiii :)
ReplyDeleteEpilogue:
We shed, pick, wrap, unstrap then recap
between u and u, there are layers
between I and I, there are layers
sometimes,
u and I, cut each others' layers
like two hot iron rods melting into one another -
strange heat
gained
not exactly equal to dissipating heat lost! :)
Undertones (introspective):
Apna hi saaya dekh ke tum, jaane jahaan sharma gaye,
Abhi toh ye pehli manzil hai, tum toh abhi se ghabra gaye,
Mera kyaaaa hoga...socho toh zara :)
Yu to akela hi aksar gir ke samhal sakta hoon main
ReplyDeleteTum jo pakad lo haath mera, duniya badal sakta hoon main
Maanga hai tumhe duniya ke liye... Ab khud hi sanam faisla keejiye
:D
Cheezy! :P...From profound 'Who' question, I've suddenly moved to the suspicious 'Who' - Who is that, I say? :P
