Despair

She is smiling, but I can see in her eyes the pain, the melancholy, the agony.

She is screaming inside and no one cared.

She is dying slowly but nobody is there.

Every night she felt alone and lonely,

All the pain she took it desperately.

 

Like an owl in the middle of the night,

She had a lot of sleepless dark sight,

She dreamt of running, crawling and hiding in the dark shadows,

She was so frightened and shivering in the meadows.

Where no one dare to follow.

 

When and how to end the sadness and fears,

So many questions but no answer all these years,

Doubt, criticism, unjustifiable mentality,

That sinks her more in a quicksand and a judgemental reality.

 

Love...pure and true,

Start within yourself,

Take away all the sad blue,

Find your worth, value and uplift your morality

By then you will discover a peaceful dignity,

Serenity in your soul and in your humanity,

Loving yourself is the best way to positivity.
