Healing From The Dark
Healing from trauma’s is a long road. This road is what I need right now. It’s dark, but it’ll be worth my life.
It’s dark so soon
I look to the moon
As I feel the heat
Following my beat
Slowly going deep
Standing on my feet
Watching the stars
Healing from my scars
I’m not sure
How I would cure
The pain I can’t express;
turn off the button and feel less
Lately, I feel so tired. I feel tired from my divorce. I feel tired of all my trauma’s. I feel tired, just not from life itself. I have done so many beautiful things in my life. I feel tired because I think about what I could’ve done differently in my life, what I should have done to keep friends with my enemies.
Then I think about how well I went through these periods. I didn’t need to do what others wanted me to do. I live my life the way I want to live my life; the things I love to do, the things I want to do.
And yet, I lived the way others wanted me to live. They have been manipulated me easily. They have been in getting under my skin too often. I never have told my boundaries to them. I should’ve done that.
Now I will go into therapy to heal from my trauma’s. It is my time to heal and be there for me, my daughters, and anyone dear to me.
Where are you tired from? Let me know by playing along by writing a poem in a form you like and about any topic.
Would you also play? Everyone is allowed to play along!
