this pain deep down
suffocating it out
I pretend im ok

theres pieces missing
inside my soul

I look fine
but I'm dying a 1,000 deaths inside

how much longer will this go on?

the anguish i fear
but everywhere i may try to
run its right there

feeding and breathing me in
emptiness takes all of me

That's a really good write, Jennittude. I like it a lot. I could feel that emotion. I guess I'd have to be saying I hope you are doing better but since it's a year old....well, I guess I could say...anyway....I hope you're doing better now.

Enjoyed reading it.

Thanks for sharing,

Tim

Oooh, powerful.
My favourite line was: "I pretend I'm okay".
I guess it's because it's so relatable;
the feelings and thoughts that went into that.

Thanks for sharing this with us all Jenni;
it was something special.

(who also likes the way the poem itself is
almost as fragmented as the emotions,
and finds that a great touch)

wow Jenni I can relate to this all to well dying
inside, but striving to act like everything is ok.
I hope you don't still feel like this, but I thank
you for being honest and sharing this pain
filled write.

Great write. I know this feeling a little to well. I felt the same exact way about the same time you posted this. Should have read it sooner than i would have known that i wasn't alone. Thanks for posting

At least a poem can come out of sadness and anger, eh? I liked it, you could tell it was emotional because it shows in how you wrote it and what you said, and your ending sums it all up nicely.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
