I laugh,
I smile,
but I cry myself to sleep
hoping that tomorrow when I rise,
the sun greets me,
sees me,
forgives me.
I ask the rainbow to give me colours for my heart
but the rainbow isn't here yet,
coz the sun forgot to rise.
Why?
Why me?
Was I strong for too long?
or is the world too tough for me?
Why the next sunrise I don't want to see?
Is it okay to cry? The sky does it too.
But the sky has light
to glow after the night.
Can I be cured?
Can I be healed?
Can I be saved?
Can I be me?
coz life is no more good,
I want to be back, be back to where I stood
to where I stood....
'TO WHERE I STOOD' is a poem from the perspective of a person facing depression.
