Loser

“Loser!” they hooted, when they passed me.
Not in words— but eyes, half-smiles n wry looks.
I glance back at them- asking, “Why?”
I lost something, yes, but actually was saved from losing myself.
And yet they call me loser?
Why!!
Losing is not a loss if you’d actually lost a loser...
Who will explain that to them!
“Losers!” I smirk within.

  5. They lose a part of themselves who brand others a loser, feeling snug in their cocoon of superiority
    they choose to ignore their own shortcomings, preferring to cast a downward glance at one and all.

    Loved all your poems.......you really have an amazing talent to express feelings through verses!!!
