Be strong

My dear,
I hope you waking up to the chirping of birds,
and the warm glow of sunlight,
in warm bed sheets,
on a good breezy morning.
Last night, ended in a way not quite you expected,
but you know it's alright,
and it's not your fault things turned that way.

Most times, people are lovely and sweet,
but they do show their fangs and back sometimes.
They might be tired, stressed, hurt,
but not by you,
by the people they cared or does not care for.
They bare their fangs onto you,
in order to get rid the darkness inside them,
but you stayed strong.
Not joining in and unleashed your dark shadows,
is the best decision you had ever make.

My dear,
Although tears streams down,
in your room after leaving them,
but these tears strengthen you,
reminding you of who you are.
At these times,
wisdom words of closest,
will set you free from what you feared of,
and stayed true to your own.
Enlightened by the scars and ugly emotions you faced,
now standing there in the morning glow,
by those pale blue curtains,
is a stronger you to face new challenges.


Behind the story:

Well i wrote this when I find it hard to deal with other peoples ugly emotions. They can be a friend, acquaintance from work or school, where they are caught up by their own emotions and hoping to find someone to share their shadows. If they had done it in a more frank and positive way, the other party is able to effectively shares their burden and consoles them. But there are those who are driven by their egos, luring you to feel the same way as they had and enforcing their intentions on you, hoping you to say "Yes! I felt exactly the way you said so," just to make them feel the same way as they are. It doesn't feel right, when a friend of mine tried make me to agree with her. I feel uncomfortable and emotionally drained throughout the day. But thanks to a close friend, I'm back on track now! I hope that this piece of work (not sure is a poem or article or what) would help those who need to lighten these emotional burden on them, just like how it had healed mine :)
