Nov 24
A lot of the pain that we deal with is only thoughts.
If only that was true.
At times the pain is so great,
I get into such a state.
I have triggers and flashbacks.
Everything is real in the pain that I feel.
It’s alright to judge me,
But only I know how I feel.
I lie awake in the dark,
Everything seems stark.
I feel as if it was just yesterday.
And sometimes I ask myself where am I?
Waking up at the beak of dawn,
In the house where I was born.
And just for a moment I’m back in that awful abode,
Again, the pain carrying that heavy load.
That I carried for almost twenty years.
And I pray today that God has answered my prayers.
