The Aftermath

Sunlight seems to bright to look at;

The world seems too big to be in.

Life too long & all strengths lost,

Tears too dry to fall.

All the smiles of yesterday;

Seems a ghost now.

All the hopes and dreams of tomorrow,

Seem lost forever.

Sad I may be sounding;

But this is inevitable.

Because this is all I have,

Without the mask I lived behind.

The mask which hid my sorrows;

Which made me invulnerable.

The facade of calm, carefree life,

I tried to live.

Now, I am naked and shrivelled;

Like a decaying corpse.

Healthy from the crust,

But dead inside and lost.

This is what love did to me;

The fact I try to tell.

Without you,

I am in a living hell.
