Reflections of a Kaleidoscope

As we individually handle daily struggles that reality has to offer

No right amount freedom to do what we desire or what we prefer

Like a Kaleidoscope, revealing designs and randomly sprouting out

What personality will it unravel, unconsciously speaking from our mouths?

 

Day by day, almost all of us are unconscious, possessed by a different entity

Out of patience, masking the exaggeration with our fake smiles silently

The desire to let out that entire grudge, even if we struggle to hide it, it’s never easy

The moment we release it without warning, everyone shuns us, refusing instantly

 

That madness clotting inside of us, all of that exaggerated emotions

Piling them in a sack, carrying it like Santa Claus with his sled in motion

With no one to understand your internal struggle, no one to reach out for

Repeatedly despairing yourself, till almost all of your senses are sore

 

Ending our day without anyone to talk, must be lonely for you, folks?

Letting those tears run on your cheeks, staining your pillow with a soak

“No one understands.” You mutter on your lips, realization of each person

Wanting people to understand your state, but bounded by your own hesitation

 

As daytime shines its rays once again, warming our faces with a smile

Endlessly masking ourselves gleefully, under that agitated white lie

Positively energizing, despite all those corrupted pages mentally

Of how no one has the guts to understand you unconditionally

  

The Kaleidoscope in the poem refers to a random release of personalities and emotions, like anger, happiness, sadness and such in an exaggerated way. This poem is about how people with personality disorders deal with their dilemmas without people understanding them. That is all.

Very dark indeed, I like how the theme of the kaleidoscope brightens up the poem - you could bring a touch more colour into it through the theme though if wanted to. But nice work.
