Reminder To Self

There are times in life when 

You feel hopeless 

You wear out like a cloth

That just became ragged with ages 

Your heart gets more and more brittle

And the slightest words 

Of your loved ones 

Hurts you.

And you feel the prick all over the heart 

The scars you hide so deceptively 

Begin to show through the 

Pores of your swollen eyes...

The pillows become your secret friend 

All of a sudden...

You look above the horizons 

And ask yourself why me!

Then you see a ray of light 

Through the bleak of the broken 

Pieces 

And you heal..not immediately 

But slowly...
