Candle In My Darkness
I walked quietly behind him
Shocked to see his face in grim,
Who shroud his face on the desk
Thought to see him and check,
"What happen?" I asked in worry
"Nothing!" He said while sobbing
" I have a feeling, you are lying!"
The wistful and withdrawn look on his face
I quickly gone near him and hug tightly, asked again
" Why are you looking all gloomy?" and then;
"Nobody cares my feelings-
Everybody loves me for teasing and beating
Depression is weighing me down
But all thinks I'm fooling around!"
The melancholy fills within me,
All I said " It's time to move on-
Say farewell to those who let you down,
Show them what you are
It's time to heal your scars!"
Sudden huge smile plaster on his face
Thanked me for everything,
By saying" You are like a candle to me
In my darkness, your light set me free."
