I thought! I thought!
I thought my soul has recovered,
But something l discovered
That happiness, l can't borrow
And loneliness brings sorrow

My smile cushions pain
In my mind it's a stain.
I thought, happiness ...l can fake
For the pain, it can take
Away from my fragile heartt
So that it doesn't hurt
But l was wrong


My soul sinks
My heart sings
A sad song
My eyes covered with fog.

I thought !!!!
Weeping could bring some relief
But was causing some grief
This sorrow needs an expression
Before it leads to depression.
l need some courage
So l can manage ,
Before severe damage

From the chains ,,
I thought l could escape
Even by chance,
But l couldn't cope

I thought l could run away
But No way !!!
This runs in my veins
To run !! that went...
