People told me
I should write a poetry,
A happy one,
When I am feeling blue
I have been writing
For so very long,
And I'm still crying,
trying helplessly
Tell me what MUST I do?
On these quiet days?
When moon shines down?
When souls all embrace?
So silently
I hope
The rain will wash away
All these words,
Provoked ire from these pains,
That my heart can't take
Set me free..
