1:Life

Meriella's pov ,

Today is the day,
the day when he is going to
bind me in his shackles.
In this brightly lit room
Filled with people congratulating
Me all I feel is despair,
Despair for myself...

When other's see this
diamond ring fitting beautifully
as if it was made only for me ...
Gifted to me by the man
they think who loves me
to the world in my finger
they'll think of this as a blessing,
but to me this is a shackle
that is going to make my life a
living hell...

It all started 8 months ago,

my happy life took a sudden 180° turn for the worse..

Meriella Joe,
that's my name,
just a normal person
from a middle class family,
a nurse.

Regarding my origins ,
i am an Afro-American and
have lived my life in South Africa
with my father Joe and
mother Miranda Joe and
elder brother Theodre Joe
who loves me to the core...
They have always supported me
And treasured me..

Till a year ago,
I always had dreamt of
coming to New York as
I had a huge crush on this place.....
And finally,
after completing my studies,
here I am working at
one of the biggest hospital
'Wellness Hospital' with a good salary
And the most important thing
I am very satisfied with my life...

I live in a small apartment alone
but I am happy as this is the life
that I desired...

my apartment is kinda small
but big for a single person and
gives a warm feeling....

New York has never
failed to amaze me.
Even after living at this place
for almost a year
I am still not familiar with the place,
as I still can't wake up on time...
So i always buy my daily
cup of coffee from the
coffee shop near the hospital.....

I work at the pediatric department
as I really love kids....
Kids are really simple minded
We don't need to think lots
While handling them..
They are honest and that's what
I love about them...
They smile when they are happy
They cry when they are sad...
I always feel why can't we adults
Have such a way of
expressing Ourselves ..
If we even express one by fourth
Our Ourselves
I truly believe many of us
Won't be suffering so much ..
Those small kids ,
with their squishy faces,
They all are just like small
angels from heaven....
Their smiles are so alluring...
Whenever i go there
I just feel that these kids
should always stay safe and
keep their smiles intact and
I pray to god that no more kids must suffer and come to hospitals....

It's just my perspective
of world ...
Of kids...
Of life...
