Some sort of ache
like a silent storm
strikes me deep within
defying words to depict!!

It clouds my mind,
and stings my core
And, if you ask what it is
I have no words to say!!

You may call it “nothing”
but it’s far from there
It’s everything and more
A burden that’s hard to share!!

The heaviness unseen
pushes me to darkness
quietly sweating the eyes
and like a shadow it grows
feeding on my fears!!

"No pain, no gain" – they say
but for me, it’s only pain
with no gain to count or claim
The truth I quietly bear
Mirroring who I am!!
