Poker Face..!!

Carrying the burden of the world on my shoulders..

Not just the pebbles but even the boulders..

I came to the opening of a tunnel..dark and grim..

The excessive weight filled up to the brim.. 

So many eyes staring at me...

So may people glaring at me..

All eyes filled with sparks of hope..

Everyone hanging on to the rope..

All and everyone i know calling out my name..

Patting my back and adding more weight to the game..

No one trying to understand how much it weigh..

No one bothered to stop and hear my say..

Seeing in me their aspirations...

Not caring about my perspirations..

All eyes stuck on to my success express..

Cant even stop for a short recess...

People have a habit of forcing down their dreams...

Screwing with the free will till it turns so lean...

So many stares..so many hopes...so many prayers so i win the race..

I wish i was a better actor but it ain't easy maintaining a Poker Face.
