Escape the tears

Escape the tears is a poem written and shared by Shi Hui to The Ugly Writers under the theme Pandemic for the month of April.

Escape the tears

Escape the tears
The worries
The future

The fear of change
Of judgment
Of death

To be here but not here is death of its own
As one spend hours and days fleeting the nows

In a world where one doesn’t belong
Draw out the enemy that one have never seen

Resorting to solitudinous to find solidarity.
To find that time doesn’t wait for anyone.
And certainly not me.

The goals we make
The choices we take
Are ruined because of the fears we didn’t face.
