Some People

Some people come to our lives

And as quickly as they arrive

They disappear

They vanish

From our sight

From our dreams


Some people can make you cry

Even though they mean no harm

Still, tears fall

For how can you be happy

If the reason for your smiles

Is the same reason for your tears?


Some people can move your soul

And can reach you within

Would touch your heart

Would wipe your tears

Only to break you

More painfully than before


Some people can embrace you

Even if you are bathing with sweat

Would kiss you, cook for you

But a little time after that

Would be allergic to moist

Won't kiss and won't be a chef


Some people do not understand you

And they take you for granted

They are oblivious of your hurt

They don't care about your shattered longing

Their own happiness

Is all that they're thinking


Some people think you expect much

But no, a man who would step up is enough

Who would love you

With a love so candid and true

And you believe that amidst some people is a man

Who will make your sky more beautiful

To gaze upon.
