Image for the poem Refuge For Me

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
