Solace.
Do you know what that means?
A feeling of comfort in a time of sadness.
Solace is my home.
It is where I can be myself.
No fake smiles,
No forced laughter,
Just being myself.
Who am I?
I wish I could tell you.
But I don't even know
Whose reflection
I see in the mirror.
All I know is that I'm sad.
I don't smile or laugh frequently.
I don't show affection.
I don't even show emotion.
I simply don't know how.
Why smile when eventually,
You'll frown again?
Why show affection,
And create memories,
When they just get crush
In the end?
Why show emotions
When you're enemies
Use them against you?
They will find your weaknesses
Within your emotions,
And your smile,
And the people you love.
So, I live in solace.
Where no one knows who I am,
No one knows what I'm thinking,
And no one knows my weaknesses.
Not even myself.
