Behind Those Emotions

They said, I’m too frustrated to do all things right away

They said, I am irritable because of that thing

but they didn’t know that I was also disgusted with my such emotions

And they don’t know that I just don’t want to be called worthless

Dreaming of You

I felt elated, I looked around

Looks like a desert but is strange

But I awe why I am here

I looked around again,

And I saw you, my love

I approached and greeted you

It’s been two years and I saw you once more

My tears just flowed for no apparent reason

You wiped it and clasp my hand

We sat and catch sight of the sky

Wondering why our memories are there

It was merriment but it made me saddened

After all that, you stood up

“Sorry for all the things I’ve done to you,

you know how much you mean to me”, you said

I no longer know what to say to you

You left, without me saying goodbye

I just closed my eyes and I realized

Everything that happened wasn’t true

It was only a dream,

And I dreamed of you

I saw you in my dreams. It felt so real

I am okay?

I’m not sure about my feelings today

It felt like everything was black and gray

Sadness? Please, go away!

No one knows what I feel

It’s difficult to express or reveal

They may say that my feelings are unreal

So my heart, can you please heal?

There’s a noise in my head

I’ve nothing to do but to cry instead

Asking myself “when will it end?”

For now I just wanted to be held

Sometimes, everything seems so…
OH, I DONT KNOW.
