Bring down the knife
Our conversations are rife
With misunderstanding
And as the edge is felt
My flesh starts to bleed
From an invisible cut
As my body’s cells sing with fire
That sends a seering wire of hurt
Along each nerve fibre
Reaching to my gut
I wrestle here
With a pain all too familiar
And find myself
After a brief time in heaven
Consigned to the hell of a body that is aching
I cannot really tell the tale
With words
Of how it felt to fall this far from grace
But echoes are there
Of that day I drove you miles away
To board the plane
That took you so far from me
And so it seems like serpents lurk here
Deep inside my mind and belly
Wrapping tongues of fire
Around my insides
Am I dead again
Or half alive
And will my soul survive
Another cut
Which reminds me of
Those years I was consigned to be shut
Away from all human comfort
And belonging
Too painful and raw. I like this. It totally describes what I feel right now. I miss reading. 😊

Aww I am so sorry you can relate. I am feeling better today but yesterday this was where I was, smack bang in old abandonment pain. A big hug to you. I missed seeing your beautiful face pop up here. ❤ ❤ go gently on your soul.

I can relate first hand what its like riding the constant Roller Coaster there is no getting off of this ride.
Many will say time heals things but that is nothing more then fucking mirage of deception cold truth is The Storm teaches you to live and learn.
Embrace it with open arms

I get it Alex people use platitudes to deny pain…pure and simple.and then some people brush off injury which is so deeply felt and personal.
