Better Without Me

I stop myself from being involved in any situation,

I think I may create difficulties.

The consequence of my presence you cannot see,

And so I feel you are better off without me.

Being alone pricks me,

I want to be with everyone,

But thinking about the blame I might be,

I stay back and feel they are better off without me.

Being all by myself,

Wanting to smile a bit,

Heard a burst of laughter and I want to go and be with them,

I don't know about the inconvenience I may cause,

Future, I cannot foresee,

I stay back all alone thinking they are better off without me.

I want to get along,

I want to be among everyone,

I don't know when my words can hurt them all

And start a quarrel,

Thinking about the consequence and the blames,

I remain at a place,

Whispering silently with a tear that they are better off without me.

Waiting for a smile and lots of glee,

I know my past, future I plan it to be,

Watching everyone from a distance,

Makes me solaced to see that they are happy

And better off without me.
