Sadness


I know I said I'd try and post something cheerful next time...but being unwell sometimes takes its toll on you. And since an empty mind works overtime, I again came out with something dull. Please bear with me...

Misty, foggy, dull
The day matches my mood
People around me smile
So why do I brood?

I feel I want to cry
But no tears come out
I try to be happy
But still, I sit and pout

Anger, hatred, jealousy
Rest inside me
For whom, I don’t know
They’re waiting to be free

Should I let them out?
Or lock them somewhere
And hide the key
And pretend not to care

For fear they might hurt
Someone I dearly love
And break the delicate bonds
That God lovingly wove

I need to find a way
Out of this strange madness
And make sense of it all
Before I sink into sadness...

well looks like the delhi winter is taking its toll on u... 1st things 1st wish u a speedy recovery...
easier said than done but i would suggest the protagonist needs a confidant asap, keeping ones feelings inside will do more harm than gud. this ability of letting things out or letting things go comes naturally to someppl and the rest have to work on it.
i myself am not gr8 at it, but if something is the matter and i do get the opportunity of opening up b4 someone, its feels like a tonne of weight removed from the heart
