"Mute"
If I was a mute,
Life! Could it be any different?
I still don't talk of what I feel,
I still write,
Things I can't deal,
I gesture,
I look,
I don't utter,
I don't go by the book,
I stay,
Inaudible,
In a crowd,
I stay noncallable,
Nonchalant I look,
Even when,
I'm utterly shook,
I listen,
I see,
If I was a mute!
Any different? Could life be!
