Sunk

Sunk.

To the deepest place.

The darkest place.

xxx

Can I get any lower?

Can I feel any lower?

xxx

How did I do this?

It’s gut wrenching.

xxx

The feeling in the pit of your stomach.

Deep down

as far as it can go.

xxx

Emotional turmoil.

xxx

Valium.

xxx

The keeper of sanity.

Dealer of emotions, making you forget.

xxx

Only you don’t forget.

xxx

Torture in every waking moment.

xxx

So, we dont wake.

Don’t wake up to feel the pain.

Remain numb.

Feelings need to be ignored

remember?

xxx

Except its a time bomb.

Eventually they explode.

xxx

Your head,

your body.

In tiny pieces.

Wondering how you ever become

whole again.

xxx

Trying to rise from the

black hole

that just wants to swallow you up.

To eat you

alive.

xxx

There is no rising.

Darkness takes hold.

xxx

It’s suffocating.

    I remember this well and how bad I felt for you , but love the way you’ve handled it and how much better you are for it.It’s beautiful to read these words because they’re real from a real place and the readers my self included can’t help be moved . Keep it up .
