Why I’m Here
Karen Crisna Feb 2018
Don’t you worry, don’t be sad
Surely God would be so glad
To guide your path, give you love
Heal your lonely, weary heart

Have faith and you’ll find the light
The wisdom to learn what’s right
So dry your tears just hold on tight
Everything will be alright

Learn that life is just like that
For you to win, you have to fight
For in your pain will come your strength
To get you through another day

Remember friend that life is dear
God will help just do your share
Come on smiLe you need not fear
God sent you a friend that’s why I’m here

Choose Life!
Karen Crisna Mar 2018
And into the darkness again I creep
But this time not to hide neither to weep
But to take relish in the comfort of my bed
As I tackle whatever that is loud in my head

Have depression engulfed me beyond repair?
That smile has been a mask I constantly wear
To hide the anguish and the deafening fear
When I can’t silence the voices that only I can hear

When I can’t taste nothing but bitterness in my tongue
And I feel lost and empty while all hopes are gone
Sometimes tempted to find the answer at the tip of the gun
But, too scared to step out from the shadow of the sun.

No one deserve to live in darkness like this
For what good is living, yet dying in thirst
To take a sip in life’s fountain of peace
I have to risk defeating my own demon, my own beast

Life is a compromise there’s no guarantee
That at the end of tunnel a light I will see
Perhaps from my own demons I won’t be set free
But I rather lose a battle than let it swallow me.

Nothing comes easy, this I know so well
And so I must have faith to walk out of hell
Never take for granted, life is a real deal
I choose to live happy despite my ordeal.

Awakening
Karen Crisna Feb 2018
A soul who once endured the tears
Has learn to shine, conquered her fears

A heart that once carried much pain
Has painted smiles upon her face
For in her past she recognized
Not just bitterness there once reside
But also memories like treasuRe gold
And life lessons, a key it holds
A road that lead to joys untold
Indeed a pRize that’s been foretold.

What lies ahead is yet unknown,
What’s meant will unfold upon its own
A character I should build on
That I will be worthy of what I longed
Desire and action should come along
Stand firm and stay head strong
Once a dream soon will be a home
My journey will take me where I should belong.

Whatever  in prayer I ask sincere
With faith and patience I should bear
Not to limit myself with fear
Not be misguided with selfish cares
To seek the answer I should not stray
That I do things, just as I prayed.

The goal I aimed lies just ahead
A breathe of determination away from reach
So I command my inner self
To heed my calling and give it best
For it is the time that I should reap
The essence of my existence I now shall live!

Broken
Karen Crisna Feb 2018
Emptiness unfathomed
As pain devoured me like darkness spread
Hopelessness is overwhelming
As doubts pierced my very core
Until when should I stand firm?
Wearing my courage in isolation
What good it will be?
To fight a battle on my own.
Where have Love gone?
A pledge I hold so close in my heart
As torment lies where u used to stand
And diffidence engulfs me like big waves in the ocean
Does happiness hold a  stance amidst all these?
I doubt it, perhaps not!

I’m done!
Karen Crisna Jun 2018
I can hardly find the words
Like a warrior without a sword
My heart is numb,  stone cold
Pain like rain it poured.

Promises have all gone
Forgotten, broken, undone
Is our love worth your fun?
You let me burn to the ground.

Dreams are shattered
Efforts  been wasted
Doubts way too complicated
Reasons are no longer needed.


Dried my tears, no need to cry
My Heart bleeds,but will survive
Watch me walk out of your life
For you’re no longer worth the fight.

— The End —
