I am Fine

Everytime they pass by me passing gentle smiles and asking me 'How are you?',. I nod and say -' I am fine'. Sometimes they simply walk  past without waiting to hear me out.

On the dark nights and lonely days when I search for a hand,a companion and a friend,I find myself lonely.Many hands come towards me during the bright sunny days but on those lonely nights,I stand Alone.

Often I felt to show them the color of my tears but they love my fake smile more.

Often I have felt like crying and expressing but I find no ear to hear out my cries.

Often I have felt like confiding in someone but they seem to not care at all.

Often I have desired to show them the dark alleys of my mind but they are the pursuers of Light.

Often I have thought of sharing my battles but they love my silence more.

I know there are many out there like me silently fighting the battles people know nothing about.

I wish they get duped  less by the fake smiles and the veiled struggles and search for the Real Us in the world full of Illusions...
