GOSSIPERS

By Shipra Bhatia

I know it hurts bad,

The things that they said,

But we can’t do anything about that,

So, let’s forget.

They gossip, they spread,

You care, they share,

Your secrets, your lies,

The things that they do in disguise,

It comes out in open air.

You feel scared, afraid,

Wish to go back in time,

Rewind and slap yourself thrice,

Punch the person who you told twice.

Anger boiling,

Reputation rotting,

But do they care?

They want entertainment,

They want you to care.

Stop caring, stop hearing,

Don’t care what they think!

You’ll be happier instead of angrier,

Do your own thing!

Let others be others,

And you be you,

Just remember, there’s no one else like you!
