The Darker Side

Like ALL, I too am not perfect, Mustering all strength to remain abrest, Half of myself remains hidden, The darkness I hide, My thoughts and feelings unacceptable, The tears unseen I cried Keeping a ever smiling face, The rage and sorrow buried It lingers in my soul In my heart Lies such an empty hole I sit and cry, Silently I shout I go numb inside, With an urge to let it out I want to run away from this sorrow But im just another cause of my pain I appear as 'dusk'to people, The Sun sometimes has already set, Dark and cold within, How does the warmth surface? Each day I fight a silent battle I lose, surroundings WIN, Not just chastity I do sin. It is YOU to whom I cling as a glimmer of hope, Within the darker side of me....
