They asked me, " How do you define
rejection?"
The moment my heart shattered into
tiny pieces,
my body remained still-
unaware of my surroundings.
My ears remained silent
in that noisy city
The rain cried for me-
I had no tears left that day.
My mind felt empty-
like the moon without stars.
I lost my way-
like an abandoned car in the deep desert.
I lost myself, my dreams, my life-
all sank into that ocean of rejection
I cried my soul out-
it was all I could do...

It may have been all you could do then
Now however you have turned it around
Beautiful meaningful and hopefully cathartic
The more you write the more you will heal
Keep em coming
Thank you so much for your kind words. You're right—it was all I could manage back then, but writing has definitely helped me begin to shift things. I truly appreciate your encouragement—it means a lot.
