Holes Inside

Assalamualaikum

I've been this girl who doesn't know how to express her feelings

That sometimes I'm hurt

And I'm just not okay.

I know that the best listener would be Allah

but I do hope that others,

some if not all,

would understand.

Because I'm not the girl

who could just simply say,

"Hey, I'm crying inside,

can't you see?"

I would be,

"It's okay. Things happen. There's nothing to worry about."

And smiled.

Pathetic?

For considering others' feelings

to the extent that I couldn't express mine?

Me dunno.

But I can say this

That I'm truly grateful

Because in this world

There are people;

Family

Friends

Who will always make the end of my day better,

lots better.

And maybe some of the painful things will remain in my heart

But the love that I cherish would be even sweeter to be remembered.

I know the people who care
will always know :')
