But You Said... Poem by shubha guru

U said it’s all green outside…where are the trees?
U said they’ll greet me with a smile…where are they hidden?
U said they’ll help me…y am I carrying the burden alone?
U said I’ll never b alone….y is every door closed?
U said I’ll have to make some extra food…y even so little I made is left over?
U said they’ll guide me…where are they gone?
U said they will share my sorrows…y are they, the reason behind it?
U said they will enjoy with me…y are they destroying it?
U said they will stand when ever I need ‘em…y are they blaming me?
U said I’ll be fine…y am I so uncomfortable?
U said I’ll be happy forever…y cant I stop crying?


U said this place will be heaven…y am I surrounded by the lifeless bodies?
U said we are one…y the counting does not stop?
U said u are not dissociable…y are they dividing people in the name of u?
