In a place of hurt you found me,

All my troubles and burdens were left in the hollow of your palms,

For what seemed like a few days became months of endless joy despite all the thorns that pricked us on the way.


From my deepest pain I came out and showed you the way in

Into my heart you came and unbelievably swept it out the pit of my stomach and kept it in it's rightful place.


Tears and cheap talks meant nothing to me when your smile became my happiness and biggest strength against the troubles of the world.

I looked forward to seeing your face every new day immediately the moon retired and the sun came out to play.



A million and one butterflies fluttered through every inch of my body whenever I met your ever so warm gaze and a billion heart beats in form of one drummed vigorously against the very chamber of my heart whenever i felt your touch.



But like every good thing, it came to an end.

The very colours that you brought into my life left me feeling distraught,devastated, shattered, you name it...

Not even the rain could hide the hot tears that flowed down my cheeks everyday so violently without pity.


Sulking and desperation to crawl out of self pity became the order of the day.

My happiness and peace taken away by the captivity of my inability to close my eyes and fall into a momentary void of peace.

I fear that I cannot practice my preachings so I will fall into the endless pit this pain has birthed and watch as the heaviness pulls my heart back into my stomach.
