Bad feelings Quote by Amjed Alaa
“Is this pain real or are we the ones who created it?? Did we create all the bad feelings or were they already created? Are we the ones who opened the cage for it? When did we surrender to pain, hate, cruelty and darkness? Happy life has vanished from this world... We weep every time we feel sad… Why can't we weep when we are happy? Even though there are no happy moments There's a story in our tears There's a story in our fears There's a story in our pictures There's a story in our lives Those story's will always be in our hearts None of them will show on our faces...”
