 THE STORY OF A CRYING SOUL

- By SARAH KHAN


Once on a dark winter's day

A girl was crying under the pillow

Tears after tears and nothing to say

She wanted a miracle to come her way

 

Lonely among the crowd at school

She would sit and wonder 'why'

"Why can't I do something cool?"

She would see herself failing to try

 

From being called a sensitive introvert

To being taunted by her parents

Her words were silenced as absurd

On the verge of her adolescence

 

Being gone through emotional abuse

Leading to insecurity and lack of confidence

She'd fake a smile to hide her blues

Nobody talked to her as a consequence

 

She wanted to be fearless and strong

With high dreams and desires to achieve

She wished to be loved since long

She's ugly and weak, she used to believe

 

She looked at the stars shining

They were shining through the darkness

Holding her tennis racket whining

She felt sick with it's hardness

 

One day when she saw a little bird

It was crawling over the ground

Then its' wings spread all furred

It began to fly freely all around

 

The girl was quiet but her soul roared

The way bird crawl, runs and then fly!

She introspected and her eyes lowered

No but this time she didn't cry

 

When she was sitting on her table 

The book was wide open but no!

Her attention wasn't stable

Her interest was in tennis though

 

When the educational pressure had increased

The flying bird inspired her

Some ray of hope was released

Her desired to fly were stronger

 

She'd practice tennis daily at school

While tennis competition was arriving

Back to back challenges would rule

Despite that, she was thriving

 

With the first position in the game

She left all in shock and surprise

She gathered around joy and fame

Her parents were speechless with emotional eyes

 

The loneliness that had dwelt around

The darkness that had preyed upon her

The people who had dragged her down abound

Pushed her forward to be harder

 

Do the flashbacks worry you?

Do your hopes used to shatter?

Are your fears really true?

These are the questions that matter

 

Perhaps the appearance doesn't define you

Whether you look weak or strong, straight or curled

Your thoughts, talents, and nature do

And the way you change the world...

 


AFTERTHOUGHT- While some people lose hopes so often, others keep thriving until they reach their goals. If Thomas Edison wouldn't have had hope, we would still be living in the dark. No matter under what conditions people are living in, the only thing that keeps them moving is hope. You might have been planned for a miracle by destiny, who knows! 
This poetry in the form of ballad is a story of a never stopping girl who works towards her ambition of winning tennis despite all challenges. 
It's good to have a healthy diet but the appearance doesn't show internal health. Your diet leads to better internal health, it doesn't necessarily make us all fit to beauty standards made by society. In order to achieve success, potential doesn't depend on your physical appearance rather it depends on your mental strength. 
So believe in yourself, keep your hopes high and you can do incredible things!

Hope you enjoyed the reading!
Thanks for being a patient listener :))
