The Diary Of Tears ( Five )

by ADEL   Dec 3, 2011


Everyday, I wake up and fail, however, I pass paths of long miles with my eyes
picturing life a wise mother raising strictly her happy sons and joyous daughters.
Like you dear unreader, I try to convince my heart how stunning life is, how vast are
the green meadows, roads away of my damage. how candid,
charming and magical it is to sip a cup of tea in a sunlit
yet cold morning, or dining slowly at the edge of a silent glimmering river
located between isolated valleys, or walking afternoon
beneath the blue virgin sky stealing a glimpse at a rose
swaying in a garden which I do not possess.
Yet, when I have enough of these slighted joys
and the cancerous fall of sleep embraces my eyes
with hours of blackness,
everyday,
I wake up this way,
everyday,
I wake up and fail.

    Very touching intense write, Adel. How you see and feel the wonder and perfection of life around you yet you cannot connect, your despair and desolation being so great. Very honest of you to share this, and I've felt similar feelings as you. Can relate. Life is a struggle. I wish you the best.

    As before I think your work is so sad and I hope a day will come when there is hope and happiness in your words.
