She is on one side of Truth, He on the other...






discontent swallows whole
ALL those things once held dear


discontent
and a heavy heart


wavering…


a tug of war
between empowering thoughts
and the fall of tears


discontent
makes time stand still
as restless longing
turns to need


for sleep
for a rainy day


for the trail of tears
to be kissed away and made right
by the one who inflicted the wrongs




but what she really needs
is to find peace
in the knowing
that the only thing REAL are her tears
and those things she held dear
sadly ~ were not


She is on one side of Truth and He on the other…

turning inward...








Tears turning inward



flooding her insides
as her heart becomes inflamed
with a hurt so deep
so dark
charred by an absence
of love, 
of respect,
of care...
of him...

Tears turning inward
filling her mind
her heart
her spirit ~ with the deepest pain
in the darkest place
in the deepest way...

Tears turning inward
for they have nowhere else to go
heart dying inside turning black
scorched by her burning tears

deceased being
deceased heart
deceased love

deceased from the fragile state 
that IT
once was
 for love ceased to be what was thought
the path was decided for her
and there was no 
chance for her, 
for them.

fate? decided that it was not okay 
and not okay for her to express 
her thoughts, her feelings, so she held them at bay
until they had no choice but to move inward
as no outward release could be found...

...what decided this?
she had no part...

she is left with
Tears turning inward.

As you slipped into the darkness
your soul cried out for the chains
to be pried from their grip that
held and
suffocated your being


this crinoline steel-like web that's cast itself
to the winds 
to the deepest darkest places


where life has no chance to be,
to survive


what else is there to
this dance of damning qualities
within, without...


where  life has turned
brought a wickedness
from below

levels deep
hidden in disparaging thoughts


that forever drown
who she wants to be...
