Sunsets With Riya

Yearnings of an Innocent Heart

People come,

I pour my best efforts for them,

I love them with all my heart.

They make me believe

that they would be there forever.

My innocent heart simply trusts the process,

and gives a chance to each one every time,

Yet all it receives in return is,

distress and pain.

Just because they are mean,

there's no reason for me to be,

for I know myself, I know

good deeds are rewarded.

But now even I doubt,

has God forgotten my very existence?

Even though I end up being kind

to all those around me,

the misfortune,

always finds its way to my doorstep.

I always think of being

the bad bitch,

but why is it so?

That I am unable to be one.

Is there no longer a place in this world

for good and innocent hearts?

Will I ever be paid back for my benevolence?

Though I do not really expect,

but now even I have gotten tired.

I have reached a stage

where I just can't ignore the worst

happening to me.

All I want is to experience my energy,

so at least for once,

I would feel secure, loved and heartfelt.
