Better Days

''Better Days"

Better days indeed!
Its been long since a smile appeared 
upon my grumpy face.
The rain refused to fall,
It  was now a dry heart like erosion to soil
of sadness and no hope...

We laughed with misery within
no sense of belonging, no sense of reality
a paranormal kaleidoscope.
imagination in order to get by starvation
growling stomach.

There was no place for tears, we endured and 
conquered, we died not! ,we stood tall!
For we knew better days were ahead,
Better days indeed!
