A Reason To Smile | Priyanka Chetal Sharma

She drowned in her worries

She soaked in her fears

Isn’t there anyone she thought

Who patiently hears?

She looked around,

She searched for someone

Someone she could run to

When things went wrong

Someone she could cry with

For hours along

But wait, did she look hard enough?

Did she expect too much?

Well, she found lots of ears

Ready to listen

But were they enough to heal?

How did that make her feel?

Then was the time she stood in front of a mirror

Asking why do tears still flow my dear

As she wiped her own tear

She noticed what curbed her own fear

That was the moment, she found everything she was looking for

Every friend she had ever hoped for

Is this it she asked herself?

All this while when I searched for smiles

I only had to travel an internal mile?

She was confused

She was elated

A sense of freedom is what she related

Not to be dependent, Not to be searching

Creating her own reasons

Marching her own way

I am the reason for my happiness is all she had to say!
