Mid night poetry

When you try to hear deep
It goes further away
Down to the seamless bed of sea

You search, meditate and introspect
It goes further away from you
You wonder if you left anything unchecked

One fine day you find yourself weep
Watching a character too familiar
Or a recollecting a childhood habit

You then realize it was your inner voice that you were looking for
It had stopped speaking to you

You blame peers pressure
You blame your surroundings

In the end you only feel guilty and weak
For all the times that you succumbed to pressure
For all the times you couldn't keep your true self alive
Was it to please the society or a part of your heart
You'll never know
