UNHAPPY SOUL

Poetry 1 min read , December 16, 2020

I am a woman who grew up in an unhappy ​home! I only receive love once in every single year. And I have been unhappy since I was a child!

My mother left me the moment I needed her the most! ​ Her love for me was so pure, like the waterfall! I guess she was my source of happiness.

Hating myself was one of my daily routines! All those years of my life, I thought my happiness belongs to other people while I forget that I am the only one who can make myself happy.

I always see myself as a failure! I never had that shoulder to cry on. The only friend I have was crying!

I always learn the hard way because people don’t appreciate everything I do. ​They think that I am too slow in life but am happy without them. Unhappy SOUL that my true identity!
