Poem: Role Play

By जीतू बगर्ती

October 10, 2022

I’m tired of this role playPlaying our roles like we are both okayPracticing our fake smiles when see each otherTreating each other like a wind or whatever

The same hallways we walkWe didn’t anymore talkedOur roles are so easy and I’m getting tired everydaySo, what is the purpose of this role play?

Can we please stop this pretendingI know, we are not okayBut please, I’m here saying,Stop this role play.
