Dear............

Dear eyes,
For whose sake are these tears?
When you clearly know that you never get what you need.

Dear mouth,
For whose sake are these arguments?
When you know that people never let you win.

Dear sleep,
Why don't you come to me?
When I lie cold as a dead body, waiting to embrace you.

Dear mind,
Why are you restless?
Sometimes with happiness,sometimes with grief.
When you know what is inside you and what kind are you,
Why are you so much concerned about others judgement?

Dear God,
Why did you make me the way I am?
When you know  very well that ,
I would neither belong to the earth nor the sky.

Dear me,
What a life are you?
In spite of having a heart full of love, that can accommodate everyone,
You still fail to express it.
In spite of having so many lives around you,
You are still alone.
In spite of having saved some pride and respect for yourself,
You still fight to make people understand you.
Born on earth and trying to reach the sky,
Born as a commoner, yet not readable by a common man.
