Shady

Single steps heard on the street
Just as loud as her fast heartbeat
Deep breath to feel the air
Exhale, let out all that despair

Empty streets in all corners
Layout a life of bother
Look up at the bluest sky
Oh, how life can be so bright

Years of solitude materialised
The strength embedded tries to suffice
They say it differs from what was past
Discarding the length it lasts

The cold touch and rare encounter
Becomes now the golden platter
Always believing it was all okay
Felt like an animal trapped in a cage

Weeks gone by in isolation
Going places turns into temptation
Inside her mind, a place alike
She is just trying to survive

Outer world, no comprehension
They all got somewhat attention
The walls once saw as single safety
Now loathed in daily thoughts
In a truth ever so shady.
