REJECTION
A vine of rejection
From the endless pit
Wraps around my neck.
Twisting, turning,
Closing on me.
I squirm under it's pressure
As my feeble arms try
To break free.
As my eyes tear up,
Why me?
Can I be this? Can I do that?
I ask
With hope in my eyes.
Getting a short "No"
I crumble
With muffled cries.
I sit and look
At the blank wall
With unshed tears.
Am I not trustworthy at all?
Am I that careless?
Ain't I deserve any happiness?
Everytime joy knocks my door,
They shackle me to sadness.
Weighing me down
Cutting my wings
Suffocating to death.
The cold rejections
Make me shudder,
And I drown
In an endless cavern.
Now, they've broken me so bad
That I don't even ask
My curiosity is dead.
I shut up,
Back up,
Lock myself up,
With a smile intact.
As after every rejection,
I swim in my tears
And die singing lullabies.
