Soul And Mind
I am neither frustrated nor very happy,
Because you always said, that I shouldn’t be.
Engorged in the midst of delusions,
Amidst the maze of life, this is me.
I am neither exhausted, nor very active,
Passivity is just an obstacle for you, you believe I shouldn’t achieve.
I am beaten, crushed, crumbled and broken into pieces,
Yet you obey the slogan, “Just give and forgive.”
I feel like screaming and crying out my heart aloud,
But a good girl is expected to be as soft as a cloud.
The clouds are still allowed to rain,
But you always insist me to smile,
Even when I am in this excruciating pain.
I envy you oh my dear brain,
Your infinite power to pull me in this false train.
Masking my fear,emotions and tears,
You work for everyone else, I am nowhere.
I was always free to feel,
You captured me, my liberty to reveal.
Holding for these many years, nothing you let me express,
After all I am just a poor little soul…
As always, you are free to choose how I should dress…
