Inside Us! ! Poem by Samima ShahFaheem

Inside Us! !

Rating: 5.0


Inside us we carry that parallel self

A burial vault without any delf

A little prick wakes up that oppressive pain

Buried deep in past with lots of strain

Ugly regrets which weren't ones fault

Nothingness exaggerated, life craving a halt

The feeling of lone & lost thing

One trusted most, damage the life string

Taking relations sensitivity, always forgranted

Something and some words, just couldn't be supplanted

Left behind is the mirror with a crack

Which magnifies self, one less shiny… other very black.

True enough, Samima, each of us carry with us a darker side. But inside each of us is also that wondeful beautiful soul, that allows us to lead a spiritual life. I hope and pray, Samima that you may find your soul, which can truly help us master our darker side. Good poem, nice rhymes..
