I have been told,
That I am the black sheep
I have been told,
I am different, in the fleet.
Is different wrong,
If different was wrong then how would it be different.
How would anything be?
Only the multiple rehashed versions of the same blandness.
White is a colour,
And also absence of it.
How would there be two different individuals.
How would you get a perspective when you will crave?
How would the surprises excite?
When the physicality is done with,
When you light the cigarette
When the rush of thoughts needs to be fed,
When you’re ready for another flight,
Here,
I come into the picture.
I am the black sheep.
Here,
You want me better than the white.
I love this!
So well written Shubham
Glad you liked it !
Thanks Akanksha ! Glad you liked it.
Put all the tolds
Into a fold
Black or white
Spotted or striped
They can tell
They can even sell
And make heaven or hell
You walk your own
Choosing any color
That you want
On your own
I made a sack,
folded all tolds,
Buttered and ripe,
demeans in disguise,
They do just talk,
never walked the walk,
sell or hell,
Applauds and mocks,
Exchanging in circles,
False pretence and faces,
looking down in their well,
the frogs wetting their laces,
giving their narrative of success,
imposing their versions of truth,
they once met the Black sheep,
who looked at them from the woods.
The eyes went deep,
and the gaze pierced the fog,
So intense to see a being, wild and happy,
They forgot the urinating frog,
and the sheep looked from a distance,
startled by voices loud,
amused by the creatures in the well,
and their affinity to the crowds.
The gazelle joins the show,
Head high, Lashes low.
Been in the well and seen the things
She comes beside the black sheep,
and they grin,
and then they talk about dreams,
and she would tell him colors,
apart from snow
and apart from black,
red and green
and Mauve flowers were seen,
and each shade added except grey,
They went back to the wilderness,
With flowers from rainbows,
melting away.
and peaches from the spring,
and thought of colors,
making them sway,
on their way.
