can i?

A Poem by sette
"

to someone very close to me who is hurting at this moment

"

Behind the smile

Is a grim face,

Filled with doubts

And sadness.

 

But courage displayed,

A fake smile pasted

On one’s face

Telling everyone that it’s okay.

 

This is a battle of

Freud’s Id and Ego,

The Id wanting to come out,

Wanting to be transparent.

 

Ego holding out,

Trying to be mature,

Trying to be accepting,

Trying to move forward.

 

Defense mechanism

Has always been automatic,

From denial to sublimation.

Displacement has been used too often

Hurting people in the end.

 

How can I help you?

I know you are in trouble,

I know you are miserable,

I know you are lost.

 

Can you hold my hand,

And let me inspire you

Once again just the way

We were a few years back?

Nangyayari talaga iyan minsan kailangan mo maging positibo sa harap ng iba sa kagustuhan mong makatulong kahit may iniinda ka rin problema o hinanakit at mga pagaalinlangan.

There are some things we can resolve, and others that unfortunately are beyond repair. Open the heart and the mind and see what happens. Some things are beyond our control.
