A poem with no title!

Hello, my dear read friends. I couldn't believe how fast the days have gone. We have just enjoyed the weekend and right now, we are almost done with the hump day. Wow, just wow!

I wanted to make a poem for my daughter, but it seems like my emotions have been driven by sentimentality. It is nice to read something about happiness and love, etc. but what I am going to give you for today is about what I feel and what I think will happen to it.

I write poems since I was in elementary. I usually stay late at night because that's where the Universe pours its grace on me. Some were sad, inspirational, romantic, funny, etc. and I believe that poems can only be created when either you're too happy or too sad. There's nothing in between as per my experience.

So here's a poem for you:

Where and when will I get this inspiration?

To sing once again, to laugh once again?

I am like floating in limbo, lonely, alone

Trying to smile, hiding my pain.

Perhaps I should live forever like this

Because of the bad choices I made

Haven't I learned, what did I miss?

Has the tree lost its shade?

There are reasons for me to be happy

Yet, deep in my heart, I am drowning in sorrow

Sadness, pain, melancholy

Shall I wish for a better tomorrow?

I wanted to create something gleeful for you

But I guess my true colors can't be denied

It's like blue all over, no other colorful hue

I tried to forget about it, to bury it deep inside

I shall get better, this I know, this I trust

The sky will bless me, the Heavens will hear me

Everything is temporary, this will not last

I'll get over this, I'll have courage and bravery

Trying to be strong, trying to do the best

I have done this before, I have no doubt

I have to let it go, get this off my chest

Maybe cry alone, or pray, or shout

Don't judge me unless you've been in my shoes

Listen to me, learn, and don't make the same mistakes

Think wisely, do not be afraid to choose

What's good for your soul, for your life is at stake

Regrets always come in the end, my friend

There is no peace, no consolation if you're not smart

So choose to be happy and peaceful in the end

Be wise, seek solitude, a graceful start

This too shall pass as what they always say

I'm not an exemption, I will patiently wait

Until the day I smile, I laugh, I sway

A new chapter in this life, I will create

Holding on, holding on, I will

Like a tree strongly attached to the ground

Desperation, weariness, heartbreaks, fear won't kill

My faith and hope I wear like a crown

I hope you like the poem. What shall the title be? I don't know, my friends. When I write poems the titles are usually a struggle. Do you like writing poems, what's your drive?

Sorry for being an emo-girl for tonight.

I would like to shout out to sis @Expelliarmus30 for the renewal of your trust in me and to my newest sponsor @Tomi-Ajax for your belief in me. I will try my best to entertain all of you guys and I will also be a light to others here.

To my sponsors, my 129 super wow subscribers, commenters, upvoters: MARAMING SALAMAT PO AKO AY LABIS NA NATUTUWA.

Keep on fighting,

Glessa

This poem is beautiful. I found myself in it. I will save it and read it again. I also write poems, but in my own, Serbian language.

We might all have this kind of sorrow that we try to bury deep inside but sneaks out when we're alone. I appreciate it that you are saving the poem :) Perhaps you can try translating some of your poems into English? Can't wait to read it :)

I was thinking about translating some poems but I think they will lose quality. I'm not sure I could do that very well. But I can try.

Big bear hugs Glessa, I know you are having a tough time, but a positive is that blue is my favourite colour 💙🤣 Seriously it is a great piece of poetry. You have a way with words as I have said before, you Glessa are a wordsmith.
