Whispers

I was pushed into a corner,
Dark and bleak,
Left by myself,
Bounded by emotions
To be wasted
I found comfort there
For I was too scared to come out
And face the light again
Afraid that I’ll fall in love once again
To be torn apart
And thrown apart
Into this corner once again
I lay there still
Eyes open,
Heart closed,
Senses numbed,
I lay there
All alone

In the midst of this solitude
Piercing through this silence,
I heard faint whispers
Many voices whispering to me
Soothing whispers that comforted me
I opened my eyes
But no one was around
Or so I felt!
I began to feel warm,
In that dark and bleak corner
Until I realized
This isn’t where I belong
I got up slowly
Those whispers,
Helped me stand on my feet
And come out,
Reborn and rejuvenated
I stand,
Facing the light
Once again!
