Sometimes..

There are times when I think

I have lived my life in vain

I have caused so much misery

And been through intense pain

I try to help out others

But when I’m pushed aside

I know that the unseen chasm

Between us is growing so wide..

I try to still the pain

That flares up in my heart

Sharing a smile when broken

Is surely a splendid art

Then a little voice ,from inside, whispers

Your life is precious too

Do not run after others

Who tend to ignore you

Be happy in yourself

And live the way you want

Then these sad and dark thoughts

Will surely not hurt or haunt
