Originality Poem by UMESH KUMAR SINGH

I cannot suppress my Self,
Nor provide a deceptive facade to Self,
I instead allow my heart,
The freedom to speak without pretence.
Many have I seen around me,
Speaking what they don't cherish,
Such feigned love I never profess,
Such feigned sorrow I never express
Such feigned consolation I never offer,
Such feigned friendship I never practise.
Never do I put on the visage concocted,
Never hide or sugar-coat my anger,
Never hide or sugar-coat my hatred
Never camouflage my animus for favour,
My friends call me a person "foolish"
For I am not a worldly wise,
For I never befriend a person whom I despise,
This is what I am;
This is how I live,
This is how I react;
For I speak without pretence,
I lay bare my feelings original,
Without transforming them,
To look civil and appreciable.
