...Tales... Poem by Lilly Solares

Sometimes living becomes a little difficult...

Today...particularly cold...
Just like when in fairy tales they say
that sad days are meant to be like today...
It makes your thoughts freeze a little...
and you sadness tries to overcome your joy...
the wind outside blows...and makes me wonder
what everybody else is doing...
My hands hurt...
...my heart hurts a little too...
A sad song playing on the radio...
everything seems to shiver...
nightmares haunt me when I close my eyes
and horrible scenes run through my mind...
When did I let myself become like this?
This is not even close to the person that i chose to be...
I was not born to be sad...
...but sometimes...
...just sometimes...
It gets too cold outside and the warm embrace I held in my memory
seems to fade...
Faded childhood that kept silly memories of sunday mornings....
...happy moments of graceful days...
kites flying and bikes here and there...
but now...what has happened now?

-it's beyond me-
