Life was once a box of chocolates,
Never did I know how it felt when the heart hurts,
Always took things for granted,
Now all I feel is neglect and shunted,
Every cloud has a silver lining,
I always believed that my star would always be shining,
But the star has burnt out,
The confidence replaced by pain and doubt,
Uncertainty stirs a storm,
My life set away from norm,
Painful as it may seem,
I despise to find that many deem,
Me fit for charity,
For the last I need is a glance of sympathy,
I need nothing of the sort,
Claim and retort,
What I need is confidence,
A stroke of independence,
A feeling of trust,
A feeling that life can be at times just,
This is what my heart desires,
This is what builds my raging fires,
I live another moment in hope and dreams,
In which light my hope momentarily gleams….
