![]() Burdened echoesA Poem by BHAGYASHREE![]() This poem talks about the guilt anger revolving around self doubt and inferiority complex.![]()
Do they notice the cracks beneath my fragile glow?
Or the way my reflection whispers "no." Can I match society’s high standards of grace? Or am I the last one in this race? Do they see what I hide beneath my skin, Or is the outside all that matters to them? Fury bubbles up when they speak my name, As if beauty is a prize in this twisted game. Each compliment feels like a sharp disguise, I wear it like armor while the truth slowly dies. Here I am trying to adjust myself to look fair, But all I know is I’m gasping for air. Guilt lingers like smoke, heavy in the air, A constant reminder of the burdens I bear. I ache for the girl who lost her own voice, Drowning in shadows, with no way to rejoice. © 2024 BHAGYASHREEAuthor's Note
