Irusu #AtoZChallenge #NaPoWriMo
In my little shell,
I choose to stay.
For I’m afraid now,
Of what the world has to say.
There was a time,
When I wasn’t this way.
My secrets, my fears I always shared,
But then my trust was betrayed.
My joys and sorrows,
I chose to share.
I thought of better tomorrows,
Because you were there.
I trusted though,
I found it hard.
But you proved,
That I shouldn’t have trusted at all.
Trust once broken,
Can never be fixed.
So if you try knocking,
At my door again,
That door is always closed now,
And I’m never home!

I’m participating in the A to Z Challenge and the National Poetry Writing Month (NaPoWriMo) . I’m trying to weave poems around unusual words or words from other languages that are just beautiful.
Ah.. so there is a name for this too… basically everything I do has a name!
What’s so good about coming here each day is that you learn a new word too! And your poetry is always a delight.
Irusu!! The word reminded me of that scene in the movie, Despicable Me, when Edith and her sisters come to sell cookies at Gru’s home and he pretends he isn’t in, speaking as an answering machine. 🙂
What a fascinating word! I personally love the sound of it. Indeed trust when broken is difficult to mend.
Beautiful flow to the poem, Reema! And I agree with the last verse. 🙂
This is something I need to learn and interpret! 😛
wow! loved the poem! beautiful
