When she said
When she said,
She didn’t sleep yesterday
They nagged;
“You must stop using your phone”
Little did they know,
Her insecurities kept her awake.
When she said,
She felt heavy inside like she is drowning
They mocked;
“It might be a heart attack”
Little did they know,
Her thoughts are becoming suicidal.
When she said,
She doesn’t feel any emotions
They laughed;
“Stop being a drama queen”
Little did they know,
Her soul has frozen itself.
When she said,
She felt lonely even with her closest people
They judged;
“You are an introvert”
Little did they know,
Her trust issues lock her up.
And when she said,
She might die of sadness
They ignored;
“--------------------------------------"
Little did they know,
Sadness took her life away.
