"A Poem of a Girl"

She is so fragile,

yet she tried to be strong.

She acted like a happy girl,

But she cannot let go of her past.

Her journey is different with other kids,

She only had 1 parent while everyone had 2.

She grew up with a single mom, strict grandpa, and supportive siblings.

Her father left her when she’s 2yrs old,

Which during that time she knew nothing abt life.

When she needed love from a Father,

she knew not to expect it from him.

When she needed light & support, she don’t know where to turn to,

As she grow older,

so much things she cant let go and so many questions in her head.

She have trust issues,

emotionally unstable,

She don’t know what she deserves,

But she always have hope & believe in du’a.

& now she’s 27,

The void is still there,

Lingering around,

Growing with everyday.

She don’t know what loving by a man means,

Bcs she never had any.

& she look for a love,

In all the wrong places.

& she kept on thinking maybe that is what she deserves.

Now, she trying the hardest,

To heal the broken child.

She thought she will be okey,

But sometimes, it just, really hurt.

But what makes her keep going?

She trust Allah.

& the girl, is me.

Love, qis.
