Time Will Tell | 1 Poem touches the heart and reveals the truth

The poetry explores human characteristics. It is improper to pretend to be someone. You will eventually be seen in the actual light and in real time.

Poem "Time Will Tell"

No point in pretending to be something you’re not,
you may think you’re a top cat in and around the street. 
What goes around comes around, no matter how long it takes, 
It will always catch up to you eventually, 
Be aware that people talk and they will listen, 
When you stand and smile and wave, not everyone is your friend. 
That’s all make believe, some merely tolerate you with kindness, 
Sooner or later that mask you wear so well,
will slip and fall and only then will they see the real you in the real light, 
It’s all a matter of time

Sindhu Gopalkrishnan
I love writing as I get to create something beautiful and touch others with my words in the process. I love the fact that I can create a whole new world, something no one else has ever seen. Writing helps me to escape reality and create new realities. At times, I also write stuff in those stories that I can never muster the courage to say in real life. It's my safe space. I can write whatever I am feeling and I can let it all out. It's also very therapeutic to me..
