Refuge For Me
fear hiding behind my smile
for at least half a century
it reveals no sadness or sorrow
self image taunted by humiliating
words exhausting anything positive
mentally weak fighting to luv life
making useless wishes blowing out
birthday candles secretly wishing
to not celebrate another year
soft warm rain drops from above
cleansing dark secrets within me
a refuge for my tears and soul

Dear FG,
Stanza 3 is especially meaningful as many a year I’ve been in the same wish zone. This such a poignant piece reflecting on exact feelings and thoughts carried daily. I often feel I serve no purpose. Then I see a garden or a tree and think, there it is. I’m meant to appreciate that beauty. This is such a relatable poem. Word for word you’ve captured thoughts and feelings I’ve had on a daily basis for what feels like centuries! Lovely writing. H🌷

Great job Purple princess

So melancholy and yet you write the words that we’ve secretly said to ourselves before. No one ever understands how important they are to someone. Look at how many people here love you💜Happy belated birthday 🥳
