She chose being silent
Cause she was tired
From waiting for someone
Just to hear her out
People around
Never cared
How she was
Burning inside-out
Being alone
Being quiet
Then became her saviour
And so she found
Her own comfort
In writing behaviour
She stopped relying
She stopped the wounds
From all that digging
Going down deep into her
Was all on her own
In the midst of her teen
Watched others getting loved
While she craved being loved
Knowing all betrayals
She had
In the past
Awaits her
In the future
Still
She got backstabbed by the ones
She called
“home”
