It was a candid confession
when she told her mom
how it happened
and how did it start
How first it was
all game and play
and now it has turn into
a painful, hurtful thing
which is ripping
her soul apart.
How that voice
which evokes the
element of joy and surprise
now fills
her with fear
how she flinches and
runs to next door
or hides under the stair
whichever is near
How she has torn apart
all the pictures in
her family album
and have started
drawing the
scary things
all of a sudden.
How no matters
how much she listens
to the lullaby
it doesn’t calm
the devil within
they always have
a place to hide
a corner to sneak in.
It was indeed a candid
confession,
an honest one;
but everything
tuned into dust
and broke her heart
when she heard her mom saying
“I know, you are lying from the start”.

When we open our heart to someone(even parents) and they just break our trust and hope we have in them and in just few words ,that’s more heartbreaking.
That’s why I prefer sitting in the dark and fighting my own demons than going in the light and seeing the demonic faces of my very owns

It works both ways but I think if you reach out to the people, you are missing out on meeting the good ones.
