Moments of Woe: The Pain Unexpressed
And today, I feel like shedding those unshed tears,
Today I feel scared by the slightest fears,
The smiles I smiled are no more today,
I feel the mordacious pain I never felt before,
My ship appears to have wrecked right at the shore,
Tired of this scabrous path I tread,
Wish today, I was as good as dead!
No soothing words to calm me down,
No smiles to smoothen out my frown!
No admonitions and advice, I wish to heed,
There is just nothing today, I need!
Is there no way to make me better?
To rescue me from running helter-skelter,
Is it just a depressing phase,
That's left me devoid of any worldly craze,
I seek nothing, just wish to abdicate,
And make an attempt to resuscitate,
The worldly joys I used to seek before,
Could I not be happy with them anymore?
I want an answer and things I don't even know,
Wouldn't someone help me evade this period of woe?
