Life of lies…A Poem by Shanmuga PriyaSome nights I wish I could go back in life. Not to change things, just to feel a couple of things twice.Days and months pass by Proving that my life is just a lie.. There is no sunshine.. Though I keep telling myself that I am fine.. No memories worth recalling Slowly with the night, loneliness keeps crawling..
I am not always like this My mornings are gay and bliss.. Surrounded by many My days are energetic and shiny you might even get jealous And at times even turn rebellious.. Thinking about me How can she be so happy and glee..
Days so bright and nights so lonely Twisting in my dry sheets trying to get cozy.. Like a candle I light peoples lives And all I get in-return is stabbed by knives.. If you have a problem, I will lend my ear And makes all your worries to disappear..
Though I am constantly surrounded by many Why do I feel so heavy??? So many to talk to, but none to listen…. All my emotions are deeply hidden My heart cries silently each day Not knowing what it needs to make it gay..
At-times my feelings roll down my eyes Realizing that emptiness is just me in disguise… Don’t I matter, will I matter? These are somethings I don’t have an answer.. There is nothing which can numb the pain Yet these emotions are hard for me to explain Days and months pass by…. Proving that my life is just a lie… © 2019 Shanmuga Priya |
