Wishing to listen the whispers that only you hear

Wishing to listen the whispers that only you hear

Have you listened to those whispers beginning to whirl behind you when you walk past a room of people who partly know your story ?

Have you listened to that sudden name of yours coming when you cross that edge of your staircase?

Have you listened to those wicked smiles picking up on everyone's face against the dimples when you enter that room?

Have you listened to a thunderous laughter suddenly stopping when you enter that room?

Have you listened to the silent murmurs rolling off behind the chair of yours?

Have you seen those suspicious eyes with those eye balls moving towards the right when you try catching their gaze?

Have you seen those pointing fingers to you suddenly moving upwards when you try measuring the pointers?

Have you seen people bluffs having an ear-to-ear conversation with another respected individual who looks at you with widened eyes?

If You listen to them and if it affects you, then you are the one, the legit victim

If you listen to them and if you are able to hear and walk straight ahead, trust me you are already privileged

May be you dont care as you belong to the speaker's society and all you care is to talk and impress, preferably influence I guess

Clearly, you dont need listeners, you need believers, add-ons and followers

Sometimes, you get the privilege of that sturdy numbers of your followers 

Clearly, it affects us because we care 

It is not we care about our reputation, it is not we care about lives

We indeed deeply care about you, we care about the reality 

The reality is that words, whispers, secret smiles have the elasticity of coming back to its original dimension

In precise, it will come to you someday not so too soon and not too late,

It can happen anytime and those whispers arise out of no where 

And in no time, it will be now here, right against you and there will be no more hiding, no more running away, you got to face it on your own

It can be that illegit fate up against your will

May be you can shook up that collar for drawing the starting line and the line has no end point unless someone draws

So, an unfinished line will always be there for everyone

This aint a curse or any spell that I am casting upon the speaker's society

Atleast know the complete story before you spread your half-woven one

Atleast know the whole truth and clearly truth has different version, different interpretations, different shades and meanings

If you spread version of yours, care though for an extended version from the insiders of the story

It means, why not care listening to me, the copyright owner of my own story

However, the sad truth is listening is not your thing and never will be

But, a ray of hope is that listening is not impossible for you, may be its just hard, hard to even try
