Unusual Feelings

We sit in loneliness to think about all our fears and problems

We live in sadness to watch and wonder what went wrong 

We laugh in happiness to hide from all the pain inside us

We cry in despair to take away the mistakes we have made

We love in silence to forget what a dream was just once

We repent every moment in darkness to pray for a chance

We forget all that has gone was just there for a reason

We forgive in kindness never knowing what is in return

Alas! What we have achieved is still unknown and a mystery.
