Troubled Girl

Troubled Girl

A Poem by Funmi Elizabeth Olaiya
"

A whole lot...

"

So bewildered

Am I the only girl in the world?

Not at all pampered

But will always like to share a word

Everything looks clustered

Even though it might be past

The pains keep resurfacing

I don't think I can live!

Tears!

 

The wounds are never healed

I'm left alone for God to be with

Please don't hear me out-

That my body screams

Can I talk to somebody-?

That is only I

Tears!

 

I want to be with GOD-

Your time isn't yet up-my child, says GOD

You still have a purpose to fulfill

How will I fulfill it I say?

Is it with pain within me?

Tears!

 

Can somebody save me?

Oh no I have to save myself

I'm surrounded

But I know I’m alone

I wanted to share my pain

But my hopes were shattered

I scream help me (with my inner voice)

But only my body hears

Nobody seems to care

Tears!

 

I have a big dream

But nobody can help it beam

It looks like nobody likes me

I behave like I don't care

It didn't kill me

It made me stronger

Tears!

 

I have a big dream

After I die

I want to go to the holy place

To have some rest

And be saved from the stress of life

I have no confidant

Only GOD is with me

If only I stick with him

Tears!
