You wouldn't make it
the words stuck at the back of your mind,
and every night you found yourself
weeping against the fence of the front yard,
instead, you stayed strong?
A breakdown shattering you into million pieces,
tears refusing to come out anymore,
unsaid words bursting your head in silence
instead, you stayed strong?
Tired body searching for a shoulder,
rolling those heavy eyes aimlessly,
the only comfort has left your shadow
when you walk down those empty lanes,
instead, you stayed strong?
Into the dusk nights swelled in darkness,
looking vainly for the same peace of mind
that you held, in one clench of fist,
letting it blur in a blink of an eye,
instead, you stayed strong?
You are just draped in self-pity
and want to unwind yourself
into the chasm,
and let loose the grasp of uneasiness
that'd pricked the deepest of your faith
but, are you strong now?
are you now?
