Fear her…
I have seen her sadness last for ever
you would find when you look in her eyes
No one would ever know the meltdowns she had
she has cried the worst of the cries
the silent one
the one when no ones awake
the one that hurts the throat
the one that has the largest scream
the one that wont let her dream
the one that has no tears
the one that numbs all fears
the one where you hold your breath
the one thats worse than death
she has been through the unthinkable
so fear her when she looks at the fire and smiles
she arrived here after walking a million miles
she is the storm…
Unhealed
It’s not visible to eyes,
but the feeling is deep down
digging a grave,
inside my heart
no one is at peace
melancholy has settled
like a sudden change in weather
like a pain that’s intangible
can’t tell where it hurts
but somewhere it does
so I bury myself – the crestfallen one
maundering without an ambition
which made me hollow
To be gentle with me
is the only thing I plead
Don’t open the wounds
that haven’t started to bleed
Trapped
It hurts gently like the cold rain
I wipe them,
the tears rolling down
and yes, beyond recognition
lies my past
with mixed shades of pink and brown
where I stood at departure holding my faith
waiting for the moment
that never came
and will never come
because the verdict was announced
and there was a bedlam
and the fragrance of pain
is all over the air
so I get up and rise still in pain
because I am strong
to remind everyone
that strong doesn’t mean no pain
