The silence

Earth shattering silence,
All around.......
In a void, all alone,
Not a sound.

Silent screams,
No one knows
Of these heartbreaking internal woes.
Scars everywhere,
But no one sees.....
What 'they' did to me.

Look in the mirror just to see,
These same dead eyes staring back at me.
Wander round the house, in a daze,
This has affected me in so many ways.
On and on this internal battle will rage,
Feel like an animal trapped in a cage.

Memories ever present in my head,
Gut wrenching feelings, sometimes I wish I were dead.
Hate how this makes me feel,
Just want to be on a more even keel.
I never quite managed to find the words to tell,
Just stayed locked in my own private hell.
33 now, sixteen years on,
Surely 'time heals' is all but a con?

hi

Hi
Hi WG now where do I start
For your poem comes straight from your heart
This is not an easy way to write
Fot this shows others of your plight
As you bear all of your soul
Sometimes this can take its toll
And as the clocks slowley chime
The cruelist wait is the tyrant of time
But heal and heal you will
With the support of others who have gone through this mill
I know its been years of pain
Now its about you living again
I liked your poem I hope it was worth while
So now its time to dazzle the world with your smile

Hello Music Lady

Wasn't hard to write really, just wrote how I felt yesterday. Didn't take me long but I don't think poetry is my forte to be honest but thanks for saying that you liked it and could relate to it

How are things with you?

Take care Welshgirl x

Hi WG, so sorry you felt like this. I hope you're feeling better now.

I've been better, thanks for asking. I nearly gave up on healing last week. Wasn't thinking of hurting myself or anything like that. Just that healing seems to be getting harder and harder now. I have childhood issues as well as what my ex bf did. I can't remember much about that night with my ex bf.

Feel free to PM me if you wish to. I think you're good at poetry. Keep going if it helps.
