now even a split
of happiness if
Knocks her door
She doesn’t tell
people anymore.
With time she realized
there is always only a
amount of things
you should share.
Keep it to your own safe “safe”.
Not everyone is happy
For you.
some are just there
to know how
deep are her
sinking ground
she can clearly see
and hear it now
how de-valued have they made her
only when one day the table will
turn
will she show them how
deep she has built her
confidence
no, she may not
cause what she is building
is for her own smiles
more than that
she might move on to build something else again
once she finishes
It’s a shame no one can see
that
even though she is alone
she is happy
because she is not jealous of
your happiness.
