`

Life an Ugly Cousin

`

I cry again

Like a monotonous ritual

Invisible in my sorrow

Tears in the rain

 

What I thought I felt

Wasn’t  love

It was but a delusion

Of a needy mind

 

I wasn’t aware that…

My ability to endure

Is tremendous

To sustain abuse

Incredible

 

I long, crave to collapse

To dissolve in my unhappiness

I can’t

It  just won’t happen

 

At times like these

Death sounds sublime

A beautiful thing

And life an ugly cousin
