nothing more than emptiness in sight
A peaceful silence outside
but droning noise inside
Thoughts melancholy in the mind ruffle
Discomfort and suffocation now shuffle
Tranquil put at bay
Mental frame in a disarray
Anger ruthlessly at me, claws
Jealousy clutches me by its paws
Pain raises its ugly hood
Sorrow spewing poison as it could
In this colossal trauma, I wince
Take it, take this away before I collapse
Devastation at its height
It rules me with all its might
Yet I struggle
And put up a fake smile
To deceive the world all the while
For a smile is all it takes......!!!
