The world used to be a safe space to share  you feel

A safe haven to love and be loved

Where smiles were real 

Where problems could be shared and empathy could be felt

'How do you do?' was a question that signified genuine care

Not anymore

We do not know the reality of these no more

Smiles are plastered on our faces while our hearts are weighed down 

Everyone goes through a problem or another but hardly anybody is willing to ease another's pain

Everyone has become a prey to someone's desires and wants

Love has become a lie 

Harshness is a defence mechanism and a normality 

The world now contains hearts and bodies that would rather be alone than risk falling and letting go

We are so careful not to make mistakes but mistakes are very much high and obvious

We have forgotten that it's okay to fall

It's okay to love

It's okay to be happy

It's okay to be bruised because you will heal 

And the scars left are a symbol of strength and bravery

I hope the world goes back to being a happy place 

A place full of support and love

I mean, the best i can do is hope,right?
