A yearning to see in darkness
A longing to hear in a room of silence
A pining to touch the waning mist
To chase a dream that does not exist.
A song to please who cannot hear
A wish to see a smile in mirror
A hope to speak what words can’t say
To find the end when lost the way.
A veil to mask what is known
A cage to hold the bird that’s flown
A smile to muffle the deafening sigh
To see the truth, only to deny.
And as all the burdens pile into one
Tired, the soul has nowhere to run.
Interesting read.. Seems to reflect the turbulent thoughts on your mind. Very well written.
ReplyDeleteTrue that.. Very well written.. But if its ur experience that has given way to this work... Then u need to ask.. Was that experience worth it?
ReplyDeleteThanks for asking. Given an option, I would rather this poem was never written :)
