Playing hide and seek

Doesn't need two persons, 

One can hide from the inner self

Seeking outer world.

Amazing, how we choose, 

Words to deceive the world, 

World or ourselves. 

Boasting about achievements,

Cleverly hiding back our,

Failures ---pain 

We get in the bargain

But,, that is how life flows,

from one pain to another,

Oh, pardon me,

from one achievement to another.
