White Flag

Outside the balcony
On a cold lonely night
Sat down on a bench
With tears filled in my eyes

I listened to my heart
Trying to solve a mystery
That makes my heart heavy
And my mind out of sight

So frustrated,
I poured out my feelings to the sky
Trying to ease my mind
Finding a truce to this thing called "LIFE"

Overflowing tears coming out
Like a sea billow row
"I'm fed up",I said to myself
My mind searching for peace

Fighting an already lost battle
My life seems so messed up
Wanting to say goodbye
To ease my trouble mind

My soul is willing
To put this fight to rest
Scared of losing it
And striving to death

"Am I too weak to give in"?
Or "Am I too strong to let go"?
These question troubled my mind
As I try to surrender

Not being able to run
Or not ever wanting to turn
Am so desperate
For a relief and ease of mind

Wish I could raise other flags
Be it a blue,red or a yellow one
But now I know I have to let go
And put an end to all this

It could be my weakness or strength
I don't care
I could be cursed or laughed at
I still don't care

Wanting to be at peace
Wanting to feel relieved
I had to let everything go
As I waved the white flag.

"Wanting to be at peace

I do understand the poem. Some waving the white flag feel okays. But its isn't. Best to stand your ground for the right things. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Your ability to describe painful moments is remarkable. Your diction is cool.

don't wave the white flag yet. Your poem is thought pricking. Seems to me you were/are depressed. I like the diction. Great job!!!
