The Cold of a Timeless Winter

After a rough night, these are the thoughts I could accumulate before starting another day, without knowing what this day holds for me.

Some days I don't feel like waking up. 

Some days I don't feel like seeing the light. 

Some days I don't feel like hearing anything. 

Some days I don't feel like looking at the mirror. 

Some days I don't feel like feeling alive. 

Because, 

I cannot live through another living nightmare. 

I cannot fight the darkness within. 

I cannot stop the loudest cries in silence. 

I cannot stand to watch the lines of tears hiding behind the make up and the contour. 

I cannot make sense of life.

Dear one, i really do understand what that feels like...
the smile we wear as make up and add a little bit of gloss to fool the world that we are ok...
but only we know that , even to make a small move it takes lot of effort... to smile also ...still we do wear our mask perfectly not letting anyone know how we are crumbling every next minute into more darkness isn't it..

guess light will shine, we just need to learn to hold on to the cliff little longer...

sending you some sun shine..

"I cannot stop the loudest cries in silence. "-
This expresses the whole poem.

How helpless one can feel, that is well portrayed here. But I believe everything that happens, happens for good. That keeps me going:)

I agree, it is the urge to move on and the belief that keeps us going. Thank you for your review.
