In the dark

In the dark, our shadow lingers
Carry with it a burden we bear in secret
A load incognito to the world around
A cross we carry in a lone street

In silence, we wait and hope
That our tears would be wipe away
Years of toiling and fighting
hoping, praying, and waiting in the dark

In silence, our tears roll out
Our weakness is poured with no hindrance
Our vulnerability is seen before us
In the dark, in a lone moment, silent from the world, we are our true self, a part the world don't see
