LONELY LIFE, BREATHES...

LONELY LIFE,  BREAFHES...

In quiet
She weeps
For life, feels
Alone...

In a world 
Of company 
She is left
On her own!

What of them
Who surround her?
Do these not see
Unshed tears
Nor hear cries
In disguise of
A jolly smiles?

Do they not
Realize
The turmoil
Of this life?

Such fools, why
Are they around 
If they cannot 
Discern
Her unspoken pain
Or heed 
The cry so 
Silently loud!

Must they be
Shaken awake
From their reverie
So they can finally
Clearly hear her
And  her, truly see...?

Life breaches 
Lifeless...!
