Too many nights I have lay here crying,
the tears pour down
and I can't tell if they're lying.
I feel an emptiness deep inside
knowing I should be doing alright.

There are days where I paint on a smile,
make it through the day
by laughing a little louder,
I know if I ever dare stop for a while
I will feel it in full force and I'll breakdown.

Too much noise filling my head all the time,
I try to scream
but it's buried deep inside.
I fear if I don't speak up soon
I'll be lost to the war no-one else can see.

Always wished I was taller, thinner,
walked a little taller for you.
Wished I kept quiet, kept my mouth shut,
never answered back now for you.
See I cried so many tears, wasted all my time
while I let you cast a shadow all over my life.
I only wanted to be good enough for you.

All I ever wanted was for you to see me,
Gave you everything I had to give.
Got swept up in a whirlwind, breakdown
Getting too caught up in trying to maintain your standards.
You always used to tell me to shut up,
to act a certain way when we were together...
Maybe I really was going crazy

आज मन में ये सवाल उठता है

क्यों किसी से बात करने का मन करता है

जब खोए हुए हैं सब अपनी ही दुनिया में

तो क्यों उन्हें तलाशने को जी करता है आज मन में ये सवाल उठता है,,,

कहते तो सब हैं कि हम साथ हैं

दूर हैं लेकिन तुम्हारे पास हैं

फिर ये साथ अधूरा क्यों लगता है

आज मन में ये सवाल उठता है,,,

मीठा बोल के लोग पीछे छुरी चलाते हैं

करते थे अब तक जो नफ़रत हमसे

अब वो साथ मुस्कुराते हैं

अपनी कही बातों से हर दिन मुकर जाते हैं

कभी करते हैं हाँ तो कभी ना कर जाते हैं

रोज़ बदलते रिश्तों पर विश्वास कैसे हो सकता है

आज मन में ये सवाल उठता है,,

Changing relationships


...Today a question arises in the mind
Why would you like to talk to someone
When all are lost in their own world
So why does he live to find them today, this question arises in the mind ,,,
Everyone says that we are together
Away but you have
Why does it feel incomplete then
Today, this question arises in the mind ,,,
People speak sweetly behind a knife
Who used to hate us till now
Now they smile together
Go back on his words every day
Sometimes they do, sometimes they do
How to trust daily changing relationships
Today, this question arises in the mind,
Friends u can also subscribe my channel mini POETRY to have a new poems

behind the face carrying the biggest smile
the silent screams echo
get them to stop they’re getting too loud
no one knows where I go
when you turn off the light
and you say it’s alright
the girl you meet is not me
stuck in a place only i see
losing my mind, slowly
thoughts rushing inside, so deep
how many times can you believe
this constant fear, on repeat
that this is all that’s left for me?
why can’t I just ******* leave?

last night i begged and pleaded with you for hours,

tried telling you that i deserved to bloom like a flower.

i’ve never asked you to save me,

but now i’m asking you nicely.

please, let me be happy,

and please, i beg of you, let it be for me.

amen.
im tired of being superficially happy. or it being temporary. what did i do wrong? why can i not get this one thing?

You nor I can reverse time
Please stop running laps through my mind.

I’m completely fine,
because when I said that I was not,

they responded with,
"You can’t be sad, just look at what you’ve got."

All they did was doubt,
they said,

"You don’t have anything to be sad about."

they said,

"Just look at all the friends you have,
and family around."

that only made me sadder;
do I need a reason to break down?
You don't have to live a depressing life to be depressed.
