In the days of my youth, my parents were my stronghold,
Their presence shielding me from troubles untold.
But as I ventured into the vastness of the world,
Their protection seemed feeble, as life unfurled.
Quietly, I learned to endure, bearing my pain alone,
Masking my wounds, pretending they had flown.
The mantra "Everything is alright" became my guide,
Numbing my heartache, burying it deep inside.
Through hardships faced and battles fought,
I found solace within, lessons dearly bought.
Yet on days like today, when loneliness prevails,
I yearn for a confidant, someone to unveil.
Sitting on a park bench, scrolling through my phone,
Contact list filled, but a sense of solitude has grown.
Irony lingers as I gaze at those familiar names,
No one to share my burdens, to ease life's cruel games.
The world around me shimmers, like a fleeting dream,
And in this moment, introspection reigns supreme.
So today, I release my emotions through poetic verse,
A cathartic journey, a chance to lift the heavy curse.
No solutions sought, but a deeper understanding,
As I delve within, self-reflection commanding.
Through the lines I write, I find solace and relief,
A mirror to my soul, a balm for my inner grief.
In the realm of poetry, I find introspection's embrace,
A sanctuary for self-reflection, a sacred space.
Though wounds may linger and struggles persist,
Through these words, I find strength, a gentle twist.
