Trying is Winning by Cheenu Singh Sisodiya

You know I have literally talked to the moon,

Whispered in my own ears.

I checked my heart if it is beating still,

I have cried in corners,

With my eyes red and cheeks wet.

I swallowed my pain with each and every bite,

I have been alone in the mob and alone in loneliness,

I have lived and I have died.

Yes, he has created that vacuum in which I get drowned,

I feel useless, worthless, discarded and even dead,

I accepted the fact that he has gone, but I haven’t moved

yet,

I’m standing here in remorse despite his betrayal,

I am stuck with my brain which is heavy as stone,

Yes, I have been through DEPRESSION,

But neither my psychologist nor I have given up.

Now at least I smile,

With my heart beating light and that vacuum gradually

filling in,

Although life is miserable, but it’s worth my try,

Trying is winning!

Yes, I have been through DEPRESSION.
