Our hearts are full of so many things. We are worried, thinking too much and can’t figure out what to do.
Our hearts are full of pains. We cry and wet our pillows. Sometimes, we hide and clean our eyes for no one to see us.
Not everyone understands our pain. They make it seem like we are saying rubbish and it’s not adding up in their own way.
We are punishing ourselves for things seen or unseen. The cry, the tears, rolling from our eyes can’t be enough.
We are set in a position of no hope, and nothing can be done. We struggle day in, day out for the growth of ourselves but it still falls back on our faces.
We are troubled souls, fighting for a life of wealth and happiness. The dreams are shattered, they are not coming through for us as we anticipated.
We hide from the world because of shame and disgrace. Our hearts are heavy.
We are getting angry at anyone, it doesn’t matter who they are.
We are broken. we are searching and searching for comfort but no solution yet.
We cry a lot. Feeling despair and bitterness. We have beaten ourselves to the ground and don’t know what to do.
Our cries have made us fall sick and yet the doctor can’t do anything to heal the wounds. We have given up on our hopes.
The children are crying, men are in pain, women fight for their rights. The hunger, the fees, under the hot sun, we are trying to make it work. It’s difficult.
But now, we will arise and clean our tears. No more crying, the thinking must stop. We can make it. We get up and clean up the mess and start a new day.
For we can’t continue to lie in bed for no reason.
We fight until everything is better for our families and the future ahead. We are stronger, determined and when those days of crying come, we make ourselves happy.
The cry is over.
