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!
