"Whispers of the Heart: A Symphony of Mixed Emotions"

Shadows of Solitude

In the depths of my despair, I loathe birthdays,
When food is scarce and loneliness prevails,
Life cloaked in darkness, a cruel charade,
Each passing day feels like a mocking tale.

A little shadow, unnoticed and unseen,
Lost in the vastness of a heartless crowd,
Even in death, no one would come, it seems,
Efforts futile, my cries forever drowned.

So, I make a promise to my weary soul,
When graduation comes, a new chapter unfolds,
To a place unknown, where past is erased,
A chance for rebirth, a story yet untold.

Yearning for someone to truly see,
To hold me close when sadness takes its toll,
No longer begging for validation's plea,
I suffocate myself, a self-imposed control.

But in this solitude, a glimmer of light,
A chance to heal, to find my inner might,
For in embracing the pain, I learn to grow,
From the ashes of despair, a phoenix takes flight.

No longer defined by others' cruel disdain,
I rise above, a spirit unchained,
I am the girl who seeks her own worth,
In the depths of my soul, a fire is regained.

So, let the shadows of solitude fade away,
For I am stronger than the darkest night,
With resilience and courage as my guide,
I emerge as a beacon, shining bright
