How Are You ?

-



 Armed with all that I had inside of me,

I wished I knew the answer to your question 

I smiled and nodded, knowing the truth inside,

These battle scars would not fade away.


A marvel crafted,yours and only,

Crafted inside so neatly and deep

The hurts and suffering are so true,

A heavy burden, a mournful hue.


My heart weighed down, year after year,

Like an arrow piercing through it's core 

It bleeds as though it's life were fluid ,

A wound that gapes , a crimson stain.


A silent cry, a hidden tear,

"How are you?", I can't explain 

Why do I say this? ,You might be surprised,

Beneath this mask, I am not okay.

Poem About Sorrow

 Feeling empty and numb, Doesn't really taste as good as wine. When loneliness and darkness come, My mind would be full of chaos. Day by days sorrow come, And I ponder the reason behind this. My days of weakness has not come to an end, And it seems like there's no way out . Come and see the wonders of the Earth, Isn't it fantastic and beautiful as it was? However,trash came and ruined it, Oh my God how sad it is. Feeling trap in your heart, That's not a good feeling as it is. I wept and wept  but no one responds, To be full of desired to get out from this . By,  Jocelyn Ng Shu Yee.
