The Maiden Of The Night Poem by Rahaf Alqahtani MNSR

She'd give her all, just to make him smile and see the twinkle in his eyes. The way she worked her heart out to please him was definitely no surprise. He was the light of her life, she'd fight through all the pain. But unfortunately, he didn't do or feel the same. He let her fall for his misleading words and his charming ways but in the end, alone in the dark she lays. He'd be gone all night, he'd pass out all day. Her amount of tears was no number anyone could pay, imagine what she felt like. All of her effort was simply worthless, he wouldn't provide her with a single sense of bliss. Everything that came out of his mouth was lies, deep dreadful lies. They'd stab her in the heart and it would occur in many tries. She had no where to go, no one to love, she risked it all and came back praying and wishing for forgiveness from the one above. She was tricked, he was immature and she had to pick up and tidy the messes except one she couldn't cure. The mess he put her life in. She had nothing to do but cry, cry her little innocent heart out. She had to suffer with the sorrow, he didn't listen. She was forced to live a horrid life while hidden. How to be found? How to be loved? How to be strong and brave? How does she stop him from making her rave? She's seeing stuff, real or not. She doesn't know what's happening, is she over? Was she caught? An answer to these was yet to be thought. Although, she'd gather plans and leave in the evenings but she'd often return at dawn. But one time, she left and never returned. The moon shines and the sun came but after that incident, no one would ever mention her name. She carried her luggage with a block of fright, what's remaining of her dignity she holds on tight. She was forgotten and out of sight. But till this day, she's known as The Maiden Of The Night.
