She opened her old bedroom door,
To lock herself somewhere deep inside;
She hugged her baby teddy bear,
Putting her smiling mask aside.
She had walked all through the day,
Wearing her heart on her sleeve;
She could keep smiling whole day,
Even she herself couldn’t believe.
Letting go of all those nagging thoughts,
Her heart let out a heavy sigh;
She gazed out of the window,
Like a bird she wanted to fly so high.
She saw herself in the mirror,
Many things her black eyes haven’t concealed;
Those hidden emotions and broken dreams,
That her tears silently revealed.

My theme is READER’S IMAGINATION: you hear a book’s name and your imagination takes you the world of your own. The world your imagination creates which is totally different than the world which author has created in the book.

Chaos is loosed in Tulsa and the House of Night is blamed. Can Zoey stop Neferet in time to keep her anger from escalating to full-on war? Or will someone else have to step in to take the fall?

Yes, sometimes we hold on to facades so strong. And they break open only when we are alone. Been through these type of days. Well written Nibha 🙂
It’s hard being brave. Hope she finds healing and love.
I’ll bet a lot of people hide how they’re really feeling. Sad. 🙁
Hmm, I thought this was a child, and then think it is referring to an adult, abused …no wonder there are so many emotions! <3
That’s so sad! 🙁
Very well written Nibha!
Sometimes we need to be strong for the outside world. That’s the time when we cry a river inside. And when the chance comes to let the gates open, emotions flow hassle-free. Well-written ! 🙂
